Article III of the US Constitution provides the federal judiciary with certain protections. One of these protections is related to tenure: judges serve for life, so long as they exhibit "good behavior" (judges may be impeached for crimes like perjury). The purported purpose here is "judicial independence." A judge who serves for life may be less likely to bend her opinion toward popular (or executive-approved) opinion in an effort to obtain re-appointment to the bench. The rationale here is that judges should base their opinions on law - and not political or popular agendas. Judges are often called to examine the actions of the president and/or congress, and cannot be beholden to these very branches at the same time.
Despite this theory, several-state court judges DO serve limited terms (although the terms tend to be longer than for other elected officials). Judges who serve limited terms are thought to be more politically - or publicly - accountable in their rulings, although perhaps less independent than their life-tenured peers.
The body of judges in a country refers to the judiciary, which is typically made up of various levels of courts with judges appointed to interpret and apply the law in legal cases. These judges are responsible for ensuring justice is served and upholding the rule of law in the country.

The Judges served for about 350 years (1244 to 879 BCE, according to traditional chronology), from the death of joshua until the time of King Saul. They served as Judges, as military leaders when the nation was under threat, and as spiritual leaders.OthnielEhudShamgarDeborahGideonAbimelechTolaYairJepthahIbzanElonAbdonSamsonEliSamuel
Elected officials called praetors served as judges in ancient Rome although other officials also had the power to act as a judge in minor cases.
My understanding is that the first female, federal judge was Florence Allen, who was appointed to the United States Court of Appeals in 1933. There were female judges before this time; however, they all served under state Judiciary; not federal.
whole life or 1 year
Rome's judges or praetors, served for one year. That was the standard length of office for any elected official.
The shoftim (judges) united the Israelites in times where they were in danger from outside enemies. They were leaders.
