The Book of Judges was likely written by various authors and compiled around the 5th century BCE. It was written for the Israelites to remind them of God's promises and their responsibilities to follow His laws. The cultural setting was post-conquest of Canaan, where the tribes of Israel were settling into their allotted territories.
