TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

1:1 The judges ruled from the death of Joshua (about 1376 or 1200 BC) to the beginning of Saul’s reign as king (about 1050 BC). The events in Ruth occurred around 1100 BC.
• Famine in Israel’s hill country was usually caused by drought.
• Bethlehem was a small town in the hill country of northern Judah.
• Moab, the land southeast of Judah, sometimes received sufficient rain when Judah did not.
