O.T. Survey III - The Conquest and Judges Stages
This course covers the books of Joshua through 1 Samuel 7, tracing Israel’s conquest of Canaan and the turbulent period of the judges. Students will study the fulfillment of God’s promise to give Israel the land, the leadership of Joshua, the cycle of sin and deliverance during the time of the judges, and the nation’s growing desire for stability. Themes include God’s justice and mercy, covenant faithfulness, and the consequences of disobedience. This stage sets the foundation for Israel’s transition to monarchy.
