Evans\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book of Judges presents Israel's frailty, the nation's need for deliverance, and God's use of flawed leaders to guide his chosen people through a dark period of their history. The book of Ruth tells a smaller story within this narrative, showing God quietly at work in the lives of a few individuals. Mary Evans's replacement Tyndale commentary places each book in its historical and canonical context, examines key theological themes, and addresses issues facing twenty-first-century readers. The Tyndale Commentaries are designed to help the reader of the Bible understand what the text says and what it means. The \u003cem\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/em\u003e to each book gives a concise but thorough treatment of its authorship, date, original setting, and purpose. Following a structural \u003cem\u003eAnalysis\u003c\/em\u003e, the \u003cem\u003eCommentary\u003c\/em\u003e takes the book section by section, drawing out its main themes, and also comments on individual verses and problems of interpretation. \u003cem\u003eAdditional Notes\u003c\/em\u003e provide fuller discussion of particular difficulties. In the new Old Testament volumes, the commentary on each section of the text is structured under three headings: \u003cem\u003eContext\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eComment\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem\u003eMeaning\u003c\/em\u003e. The goal is to explain the true meaning of the Bible and make its message plain.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 288\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.9 x 8.2 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 07, 2017\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42130119196807,"sku":"9780830842575","price":33.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/9eefef1ac4153fe2e1862de8a22179f1.webp?v=1732608475","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/judges-and-ruth-an-introduction-and-commentary-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
