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.

“ Judges is right ” "If your Papist annoys you with the word (alone), tell him straightway, Dr. Martin Luther will have it so: Papist and ass are one and the same thing. Whoever will not have my translation, let him give it the go-by: the devil's thanks to him who censures it without my will and knowledge. Luther will have it so, and he is a doctor above all the doctors in Popedom." Luther broadcast 16th Century weed seeds of total autonomy which are sprouting in our day (e.g., divorce, remarriage, adultery, abortifacients, fornication, abortion, female preachers, homosexuality and eventually, polygamy). Antinomians fill almost every pew and pulpit. They're not listening to Bible, creed or confession. "And everyone did what was right in his own eyes." Though Christ was head of His OT people, Israel, they had judges and kings. Christianity should listen to the book of Judges and find a righteous earthly leader. Excellent dialogue.
