The Wonder of Bible Study

The Old Testament Book of Judges is fascinating in many ways. We began a study of it this past Sunday night at Believers Fellowship.

I looking forward to considering the lives and ministries of some of the people mentioned as Judges in this book. Some of these men are not so well known, such as Shamgar and Tola. Others are very well known such as Gideon and Samson.

What is especially interesting is that four of the Judges – Barak, Gideon, Samson, and Jephthah are mentioned in the New Testament book of Hebrews. In fact, they are listed in Hebrews 11 which is commonly referred to as the Hall of Faith. These men are listed along with Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, and others. What is curious about this is that just a surface reading of the Book of Judges would make you wonder how men like Samson and Jephthah made this prestigious list.

You’re welcome to come and find out with us and go online to believers-fellowship.org.
