Good luck. I once had to memorize the twelve spies of Israel and it was no fun. Really hasn't come in handy yet either. :)

The following (in order) are identified as Judges in the Book of Judges - great judges are those deemed worthy of large narratives in the Book:

Othniel
Ehud (great judge)
Shamgar
Deborah (great judge)
Gideon (great judge)
Tola
Jair
Jephthah (great judge)
Ibzan
Elon
Abdon
Samson (great judge)

Biblical critics believe that Abimelech was also originally considered a judge, becoming changed to a "king" owing to his being regarded as evil, at which point Shamgar was added to the list so that there were still 12 in the Book. Textual criticism also views the minor judges as being added to the list simply to make the total number equal 12, a number of religious significance to the Israelites.

The First Book of Samuel also mentions:

Eli (great judge)
Samuel (great judge)

In the Book of Judges
Othniel
Ehud
Shamgar
Deborah and Barak
Gideon
Abimelech
Tola
Jair
Jephtha
Ibzan
Elon
Abdon
Samson
In the First Book of Samuel
Eli
Samuel

Othriel, Ehud, Shamgar, Deborah, Gideon, Tola, Jephthah,Jair, Ibzan, Elon, Samson, Abdon why do you not read Judges it is a great book, My personal favorite is Jephthah. There is only 13 because the other 2 is not mentioned in Judges but 1 Samuel. God Bless

We want it to be a most fascinating few moments for you. yES,THERe will be some really easy ones to spot. Others may require JUDGES to help them. I will quickly admiT IT USually takes a minister to find one of them, and there will be loud lamentations when it is found. A little lady says sHE BREWS a cup of tea so she can concentrate better.

In these reMARKs are hidden the names of 15 books of the Bible. It's a real lulu. Kept me looking so hard for facts I missed the revelation. I was in a jam, especially since the names were not capitalized. The truth will come to a number of our readers. To others it will be a real job. For all it will be a most fascinating search. Yes, there will be some easy to spot; others hard to judge. So we admit it usually results in loud lamentations when we can't find them. One lady says she brews postum while she puzzles over it. One book is underlined to help you start. Can you find the other 14? Have fun. mark luke acts revelation james ruth numbers job amos judges lamentations hebrews
