This book is volume VIB of The Forms of the Old Testament Literature (FOTL), a series that presents a form-critical analysis of every book and each unit in the Hebrew Bible. Serge Frolov's valuable study of Judges addresses both the synchronic and diachronic perspectives, offering not only the first full-scale form criticism of Judges but also an important application of form criticism as practiced today.

Fundamentally exegetical, this volume examines the structure, genre, setting, and intention of Judges. Focusing on the canonical Hebrew text, Frolov shows how the sequence "apostasyoppression- repentance-deliverance" traverses the boundary between Judges and Samuel. Frolov also analyzes the history behind the form-critical discussion of this book and exposes the exegetical process so as to enable students and pastors to engage in their own analysis and interpretation of Judges.
