For more background details on the book of Judges, listeners should check out the chapter on Judges in A Biblical-Theological Introduction to the Old Testament: The Gospel Promised. The best single volume commentary that is detailed and accessible is probably Barry Webb’s volume in The New International Commentary on the Old Testament series. For a more pastoral, application oriented commentary, listeners should get a copy of Judges: Such a Great Salvation by Dale Ralph Davis (and any other commentary he has written).
