Judges Sunday School Lessons + Commentary by Barry Webb
This 8-week study guides Sunday school teachers through the Book of Judges. The set includes Adult (High School +), Jr High (7–8th grade), Primary (3rd–6th grade), and Pre-K–2nd lessons. Children's lessons include ideas for group activities. One copy of Barry G. Webb’s Judges & Ruth commentary is included with the set.
The Book of Judges powerfully demonstrates the chaos that can arise when sin reigns in people's hearts. In contrast, the Book of Ruth offers a message of redemption and hope following disorder. Set in a time when everyone "did what was right in his own eyes," both books work together to highlight God's faithfulness in the midst of Israel's disobedience.
Exploring the stories of figures such as Gideon, Samson, Naomi, and
Ruth, this accessible commentary emphasizes the countless ways God protected and
preserved his people in the Bible. Experienced preacher Barry Webb explores important connections between Judges and Ruth, reminding us of God's promises to his people and offering practical applications for daily life—pointing us toward the hope of the coming King of kings, Jesus Christ.
