Judges 8 is the eighth chapter of the Book of Judges in the Old Testament or the Hebrew Bible. [1] According to Jewish tradition the book was attributed to the prophet Samuel, [2] [3] but modern scholars view it as part of the Deuteronomistic History, which spans the books of Deuteronomy to 2 Kings, attributed to nationalistic and devotedly Yahwistic writers during the time of the reformer ...
Patrick D. Miller in his commentary on Deuteronomy suggests that different views of the structure of the book will lead to different views on what it is about.

One issue with this verse is that Matthew 8:1 has large crowds surrounding Jesus, which seems to contradict the pledge to secrecy. This verse is paralleled at Mark 1:44-45, but Mark does not begin his narrative with crowds present and the author of Matthew may not have reconciled the verses when copying from Mark. [1]
Deuteronomy 8:5–10 in 4Q41 The two sheets contain Deuteronomy 8:5–10 and Deuteronomy 5:1–6:1. Although the scroll was originally longer, the unusual ordering of the texts suggests it probably was not a regular biblical scroll, but contained only excerpts from Deuteronomy, possibly for liturgical or devotional purposes.

Changes in punishment for adultery were enacted: The adulterer was scourged, and the husband of the adulteress was compelled to divorce her, [8] and she lost all her property rights under her marriage contract. [9] The adulteress was not allowed to marry the one with whom she had committed adultery; [10] if she did, they were forced to separate ...
