45_The Fifteen Periods of Bible History (The Judges Part 3)

The Bible can be divided into 15 periods of Bible History. Recognizing these divisions is helpful for organizing the Bible chronologically in the mind and relating the various books to one another. The seventh of these 15 Periods is called the Period of the Judges. This period extends from the death of Joshua to the establishment of the Kingdom under Saul (Judges 1:1-1 Samuel 12:25). [This lesson covers the historical purpose and chronological placement of Chapters 17 through 20.]
