God's Word: Judges by ric gustafson
The book of Judges was written in 1350-1000 BC possibly by Samuel. The purpose of this book was to stress the importance of remaining loyal to God.
Once in the Promised Land, the tribes of Israel start a rapid spiritual and moral decline. When the people cried out to God, he raised up leaders or judges to deliver the people. After a period of time, the cycle would start again. God raised these judges when they were needed.
Judges 21:25 says in those days Israel had no king everyone did as they saw fit.
