I'm not a big fan of this series....skips over quite a bit and didn't provide a lot of new insight to me. But I can imagine it being more helpful and appreciated by someone who is reading Judges for the first time, or doesn't dig into other, more thorough commentaries. Goldingay's approach is finding modern day stories that somewhat parallel the Biblical events and then raising some questions to think about.
