This study addresses two underdeveloped areas in Old Testament scholarship: the use of Judges in Psalms and the use of rhetorical criticism in the analysis of inner-biblical allusion. The proposed inner-biblical allusion methodology employs two standard factors—lexical and contextual affinities—and adds specific rhetorical-analytical steps to analyzing allusions to Judges in Psalms. The study then applies the proposed methodology to the use of Judges 5 in Psalm 68, Judges 4–8 in Psalm 83, and Judges 2, 6–8 in Psalm 106 and notes overlap in the rhetorical goals of each of the three psalms.
