The Book of...Judges? Julian Chike on literary and historical issues in Judges

Why do we call the main characters in the Book of Judges “judges”? Compared to what judges are supposed to do in Deuteronomy, for example, the “judges” of Judges don’t really look like judges at all.

In this episode, Dr. Julian Chike joins me to discuss his work on the Book of Judges, in which he explores social, historical, and literary developments that might help clarify our understanding of what the judges in the book of Judges were. As he says, he is attempting to rediscover these characters. He’s doing some fascinating work, and I’m excited for you to hear more about it.

Dr. Julian Chike earned his PhD from Notre Dame. In the fall of 2022, Julian joined the Baylor University Religion Department as an assistant professor.
