The new edition of The Book of Judges is a 180-page graphic novel from the series: The Word for Word Bible Comic, featuring the NIV Bible Translation.
The comic presents every word of the ancient scripture, within its historical, cultural and geographical context. It employs a high view of scripture and is aimed at mature readers, primarily aged 15+.
This revised edition is now the uniform size with the others in the NIV series. Instead of 132 pages in the original version, this edition has 180 pages. Meaning we enlarged and rearranged the panels and put them over more pages. The new edition also includes 15 pages of research notes and articles at the end.
The Story: Ancient fortresses lie in ruins and temples to dark entities have been torn down. In battle after battle, God has smashed the enemies of His holy nation and they have, at last, taken the promised land. But now His chosen people have turned their back on Him. Forgetting the great waters that parted before them and the massive city walls that shattered at their call, they leave God's way in the dirt and try to live life by their own rules. These dark centuries are a spiral of temptation, greed, lust, betrayal and tragedy. However, ordinary men like Samson and Gideon are called by an angel of heaven and given divine powers to turn the tide and save the people from annihilation. Although, it seems that even these heroes are not free from corruption.
