No. During the times of the judges there were many cycles of backsliding, oppression, repentance and deliverance.
God repeatedly raised up judges each time Israel began to take on the idolatrous practices of the people they failed to drive out of Canaan. Israel became oppressed by these Gentile nations when they repented and cried out to God, God delivered them through judges (military leaders) who over threw the oppressors.
