Unit 9: God Judges His People
Unit Description:Because His people continually fell into a pattern of sin, God raised up judges to help refocus the people’s faith and trust in Him. God used the judges to help deliver His people from their enemies. While a judge was still alive, God saved the people from their enemies, but when the judge died, the nation would lapse back into sin and again need salvation through another judge.
Key Passage: Isaiah 33:22
Big Picture Question: Whom does God use in His plan? God uses people in His plan.
 
Bible Story: Ruth and Boaz
Bible Passage: Ruth 1–4
Main Point: God gave Ruth a family.
 
This week we looked at the story of Ruth and Boaz that took place during the time of
the judges. God provided Boaz to take care of Ruth and her mother-in-law
Naomi when they were in need. God sent Jesus to earth through Ruth’s family.
Boaz was a family redeemer. That means he would help his close relatives who were in
trouble. Boaz cared for Ruth and Naomi because their husbands had died. In a similar
way, Jesus is our Redeemer. We need help because we sin. Jesus bought our salvation
for us by taking our punishment when He died on the cross.
Help your children see the picture of Jesus redeeming us through His payment on the
cross.
