| The book of Judges is the history of Israel during the government of the Judges, who were
occasional deliverers, raised up by God to rescue Israel from their oppressors, to reform the state of
religion, and to administer justice to the people. The state of God's people does not appear in this
book so prosperous, nor their character so religious, as might have been expected; but there were
many believers among them, and the tabernacle service was attended to. The history exemplifies the
frequent warnings and predictions of Moses, and should have close attention. The whole is full of
important instruction.
