1 & 2 Samuel: A Self-Study Guide

Samuel, the last of the judges, wrote his first book linking the judges and the monarchy. In it he called the people to a revival of the true worship of Yahweh their God. He was also chosen by God to anoint both Saul and David as kings of Israel. This self-study guide will help you to take a closer look through the eyes of this great Old Testament saint as he records the important events during the reigns of both kings.

The books in the Jensen Bible Self-Study Guide series are designed to provide you with a broader understanding of God’s Word. Offering historical context and background, author information, charts, and other helps, these books will equip you with a comprehensive reference tool you’ll return to often. Each study includes an opportunity for analysis, response, and further study in a response-oriented format. The thirty-nine books in this series are suitable for both personal and group use.
