Resumen

Abstract: This paper analyzes the text of Judges 3:12-30. The reason is that the presence of irony in Judges 3:12-30 has been disputed in recent articles. Using narrative criticism and intertextuality as methodology, this paper shows that the cumulative effect of literary features, and Moab-Israel relationship background, results in irony.

Key-words: Book of Judges; Moab-Israel; Narrative Criticism; Irony; Food.
