The NIV Application Commentary helps you communicate and apply biblical text effectively in today's context The books of Judges and Ruth have relevance for our lives today. Judges, because it reveals a God who employs very human deliverers but refuses to gloss over their sins and their consequences. And Ruth, because it demonstrates the far-reaching impact of a righteous character. K. Lawson Younger Jr. shares literary perspectives on the books of Judges and Ruth that reveal ageless truths for our contemporary lives. To bring the ancient messages of the Bible into today's context, each passage is treated in three sections: Original Meaning. Concise exegesis to help readers understand the original meaning of the biblical text in its historical, literary, and cultural context. Bridging Contexts.

This section identifies comparable situations to those faced in the Bible and explores relevant application of the biblical messages. The author alerts the readers of problems they may encounter when seeking to apply the passage and helps them think through the issues involved. This unique, award-winning commentary is the ideal resource for today's preachers, teachers, and serious students of the Bible, giving them the tools, ideas, and insights, they need to communicate God's Word with the same powerful impact it had when it was first written.

The book consists of two parts: the first considers questions of a general nature. They concern matters of identification, the rationale for the period and the way it is reported, the potential which the period held for blessing, the nature of the world of the day, the character of the nations which brought oppression, the marked blessings of the time when Joshua lived, and the variety and seriousness of sin that arose. The second part probes particular matters which concern the distinct episodes that transpired. Discussion centers on the leading people of the day, who were mainly judges, with special attention given to the story involved, and also lessons from it to challenge and instruct for the Christian life.
