The book details the horrors that can occur when people create their own laws, rather than living by a pre-set moral standard. "In those days," says the Book of Judges twice, "there was no king in Israel, but every man did that which was right in his own eyes" (Judges 17:6, 21:25).
The judges were, at a minimum, people who delivered (or saved) Israel from its oppressors. Many of them also served as rulers of the people.
They were Othniel, Ehud, Shamgar, Deborah, Gideon, Tolah, Jair, Jephthah, Ibzan, Elon, Abdon, and Samson. Some might consider Abimelech to be a 13th judge, but he is not traditionally included in the list of judges and is regarded as a usurper.
The prophet Samuel traditionally receives this credit, though liberal scholars argue that the book first appeared as a poem, and was later combined with prose accounts in the 8th century B.C.
Caleb was Othniel's uncle. Upon her marriage, Achsah asks, and receives, of her father a field and springs.
