Kitab Hakim-Hakim, Kegagalan Kepemimpinan, Pelajaran Moral, Hermeneutika, Kepemimpinan KontemporerAbstract
Penelitian ini mengkaji kegagalan kepemimpinan dalam Kitab Hakim-Hakim dengan menyoroti bagaimana kelemahan moral dan etika tokoh-tokoh seperti Gideon, Samson, Yefta, dan Debora memengaruhi perjalanan Israel serta memberikan pelajaran bagi kepemimpinan modern. Tujuan penelitian adalah menggali wawasan moral yang tetap relevan dengan tantangan masa kini melalui jembatan antara etika biblika dan teori kepemimpinan. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan hermeneutik dan tinjauan literatur, penelitian ini menafsirkan konteks sosial-historis keputusan para hakim serta mengevaluasi dampaknya. Hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa kegagalan moral sering berujung pada kekacauan dan penindasan, sementara kepemimpinan yang berorientasi visi dan berbasis komunitas menghasilkan dampak positif. Kebaruan penelitian ini terletak pada penafsiran ulang narasi Alkitab bukan hanya sebagai catatan sejarah, tetapi sebagai model reflektif yang dapat menuntun pemimpin masa kini dalam membangun integritas, akuntabilitas, dan tanggung jawab etis.
