Lance shows that Joshua is a positive story of overcoming, while Judges is a less positive story with much defeat. He teaches how both books show the Lord’s way for His people. He also shines light on how Ruth fits into the purpose of the Lord in this area of history.
The included study guides are helpful in returning to the Lord following your personal study to consider what the Lord is saying through His Word.
Lance Lambert was one of the most distinguished Bible scholars and speakers in Israel in our
day and had an itinerant teaching ministry worldwide.
Born in 1931, Lance grew up in Richmond, Surrey and came to know the Lord at twelve years of
age. He entered the school of African and Oriental studies at London University to prepare for
work in China. He studied Classical Chinese, Mandarin, Oriental Philosophy and Far Eastern
History, but the revolution closed the door to European missionaries and his entry into China.
In the early 1950’s Lance served in the Royal Air Force in Egypt and later founded Halford
House Christian Fellowship in Richmond, England.
Having discovered his Jewish ancestry Lance became an Israeli citizen in 1980 and now has his
home next to the Old City of Jerusalem. His father and many members of his family died in the
Holocaust.
Lance is noted for his eschatological views, which place him in the tradition of Watchman Nee
and T. Austin-Sparks. He produced a widely appreciated quarterly audio recording called the
Middle East Update, which gave his unique perspective on current events in the Middle East, in
the light of God’s Word. He has written numerous books and is presenter of the video production,
Jerusalem, the Covenant City.
