Excerpt from The Book of Judges With Map, Introduction and Notes

1. Title and Subject. - The Book of Judges (Heb. shôphetîm), so called because it has the exploits of the Twelve Judges (see below) for its main subject, comprises along with the first chapters of 1 Samuel the history of Israel from the settlement in Canaan to the establishment of the monarchy under Saul. In its present form it reads as a direct continuation of the Book of Joshua (i. 1: "it came to pass after the death of Joshua"), but has no such direct link of connection either with the Book of Samuel which follows it in the Hebrew canon or with that of Ruth which succeeds it in the Greek, Latin and English Bibles. We shall see, however, when we proceed to analyse it, that the greater part of the book must once have existed in the form of one or more independent narratives, which were afterwards worked into the continuous series of "the Former Prophets" (Joshua, Judges, Samuel 1 and 2, Kings 1 and 2) by an editorial hand.

2. Analysis. - The main division of the book, viz. the history of the Twelve Judges (from which the whole has its name), extends from ii. 6 to xvi. 31. It is preceded by a short account of the settlement of the Hebrews in Canaan (i. 1 - ii. 5) and followed by two Appendices (xvii. 1- xxi. 22). Each of these sections may be considered separately.

(a) The first section (i. 1 - ii. 5) gives a summary account of the settlement of Israel in Canaan with a survey of the parts of the land occupied by the Hebrews and those in which the Canaanites continued to hold their own. The survey is not quite complete: i. 1-21 treats of Judah, and incidentally of Simeon and Benjamin; i. 22-29 of Joseph; the following verses (30-36) deal very briefly with Zebulun, Asher, Naphtali and Dan; and the section closes with a notice of the transference of the ark from Gilgal to Bethel, to which is added, probably by a later hand, an account of a revelation admonishing the people of the evil they have brought on themselves by mingling with the Canaanites: see notes on ii. 1-5.
