Judging the Judges by Mary L Conway

An application of functional linguistic theory to the book of Judges in order to evaluate the characters and their actions in their historical context and determine whether their actions are normative or aberrant based on evidence in the text itself.

“This is a helpful and positive monograph that offers important methodological developments in how we read the narratives of the Hebrew Bible and also helpful readings of the judges themselves”

—David G. Firth Review of Biblical Literature

Mary L. Conway is Assistant Professor of Old Testament at McMaster Divinity College.
