Publisher's Summary

It is one thing to conquer a land; it is quite another to settle it and live in it. At this point in our story, Israel is not a nation; it is at best a loose confederation of tribes, each living in its own territory, isolated by rivers, mountains, valleys and other natural terrain. When an outside threat intrudes, the tribes coalesce, a leader (called a “judge”) emerges, and he (or she, in the case of Deborah) deals with the threat. There are 13 such leaders in Judges, and as our story progresses, they become more and more corrupt. Although the Israelites are to be a “holy people”; although they are in a covenant relationship with God; although they have God’s Law and his Tabernacle; although they have God’s presence in their midst: In the end, they become worse than the people they conquered, no longer recognizing God and doing “that which is right in their own eyes” (Judges 21: 25). Like Joshua, Judges is a deeply troubling book.
