HaYom HaAdonai (The Day of the Lord) overshadows the Book of Judges. The cycle of idolatry, gentile oppression in the Land, "crying out" to the Lord, the sending of a judge, military victory/deliverance is a repeated microcosm of Jacob's Trouble and the Lord's Return. Deliverance by a judge is celebrated by prophetic foresight into ultimate, eschatological fulfillment. The Song of Deborah and Barak after their defeat of Sisera's Canaanite army is a prime example. Language within the prose is clearly parallel to eschatological passages.
