Schwab. Phillipsburg, N.J. : P&R Pub., c2011. xxi, 242 p. : ill., maps ; 22 cm. The Gospel according to the Old Testament Includes bibliographical references (p. 229-233) and index. Juggling Judges -- Significative stylization -- Authors' agendas -- A keen Kenite -- Soiled southpaw, rotund ruler -- Does God command jihad? -- The sissy, the sisters, and Sisera -- Mastering Midian -- Abominable Abimelech -- Minor magistrates -- Jephthah's jaundice -- Philistine foxes -- Dan's dirty dealings -- Benjamin's baleful bent. Right in Their Own Eyes explains Judges from three Old Testament and three New Testament perspectives. First, it shows how the Spirit enabled wayward people to fulfill the mission God gave them, promotes David as king of Israel, and illustrates God's covenant with his people. Schwab also shows how God sovereignly works among his wayward people to forge a community of faith under the New Covenant, which points to Christ, calls modern Christians to faith and obedience, and looks forward to the return of Christ and the final judgment. --from publisher description Bible.
