im not sure cuz in judges 10:8 it says this King James Bible
And that year they vexed and oppressed the children of Israel: eighteen years, all the children of Israel that were on the other side Jordan in the land of the Amorites, which is in Gilead.
and then in judges 13:1 it says King James Bible
And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the LORD; and the LORD delivered them into the hand of the Philistines forty years.
hope i could help though im pretty sure its the first one:}
AnswerDifferent authorities reach different answers depending on their interpretation of whether all or just a particular part of Israel was under oppression at that time, and the dating of those events. Some authorities have a guesstimate, while others just don't know. Others such as Jordan [see Example 1 following] have actually dated all Judges and all periods of oppression for the entire period of the Book of Judges.Example 1:
Jordan [see link] breaks down this entire period into and has 96 years of oppression out of a total of 350 years [2910 - 2560 = 350].
"So to sum up, here is my conclusion of the matter:
2513 - Exodus from Egypt.
2554 - Beginning of Conquest of the land.
2559 - End of Conquest, Division of the land. Caleb 85 years old.
2560 - Israel goes to its lands.
2620 - Beginning of 8-year oppression of Cushan (Jud. 3:8).
2628 - Beginning of Othniel's 40-year judgeship (Jud. 3:11).
2668 - Beginning of Eglon's 18-year oppression (Jud. 3:11-12)
2686 - Beginning of Ehud's 20-year judgeship and his 80-year peace.
2706 - Death of Ehud, beginning of Jabin's 20-year
oppression in the North (Jud. 4:3).
2726 - Beginning of Barak's 40-year judgeship and peace
in the North (Jud. 5:31).
2766 - End of Barak's Northern peace and Ehud's Central peace,
beginning of Midianite oppression (Jud. 6:1). The Midianite oppression
returns us to the Center of the land. From here on, Center and North
experience one set of problems, while South struggles with
Philistines (Jud. 3:31).
2773 - Beginning of Gideon's 40-year judgeship (Jud. 8:28).
2811 - Hypothetical birth of Boaz (see footnote 6 below).
2813 - Beginning of Abimelech's 3-year oppressive reign (Jud. 9:22).
2816 - Beginning of Tola's 23-year judgeship (Jud. 10:1).
2839 - Beginning of Jair's 22-year judgeship (Jud. 10:3).
2841 - Beginning of Eli's 40-year judgeship in the South (1 Sam. 4:18).
2861 - Beginning of Philistine oppression in the South and
Ammonite oppression in the Center and North (Jud. 10:5-7).
Births of Samson, Samuel, and Obed (see footnote 6 below).
The 300 years of Judges 11:26 begin in 2560 and end in 2860.
2878 - Beginning of Jephthah's 6-year judgeship in Center and North (Jud. 11:26; 12:7).
2881 - Death of Eli, beginning of Samuel's judgeship at Tabernacle
and Samson's judgeship in the South.
2884 - Beginning of Ibzan's 7-year judgeship in the Center and North (Jud. 11:9).
2891 - Beginning of Elon's 10-year judgeship in Center and North (Jud. 11:11).
2901 - Death of Samson, battle of Mizpah, deliverance from Philistine oppression.
2901 - Death of Elon, beginning of Abdon's 8-year
judgeship in Center and North (Jud. 11:14).
2909 - Death of Abdon; Samuel appoints sons, rejected; anointing
of Saul; accession of Saul.
2910 - Saul year 1. Samuel is 49.
2919 - Birth of David. Samuel is 58.
2929 - Hypothetical anointing of David at age 10. Samuel is 68.
2949 - Accession of David.
2950 - David year 1.
2989 - Accession of Solomon.
2990 - Solomon year 1.
2993 - Foundation of Temple laid, 480 years after Exodus.
3000 - Completion of Temple."

(My Note on above Example: the years shown above are "AM" , or years after creation. For correlation and comparison, this means The date of Creation is "0" [that is, zero] AM which is the same as 4004BC (Ussher), and the Exodus at 2513AM is the sane as 146BC [Ussher]
Example 2:
RP BenDeket has 116 years oppression,
[see http://www.kingscalendar.com/cgi-bin/index.cgi?action=viewnews&id=164]
Example 3:
Heath [see link] has 111 years oppression.
Conclusion:
As this period of oppression averages out at 108 years, if you said it was 110 or 111 years you couldn't be far wrong. [At least '111' is easy to remember]
The Canaanites came upon the land of Israel and co-habitated with the Israelites in a normal manor.They did have some fierce fighting from time to time,but no killings ever occurred. The Canaanites stayed until the Israelites realized that they were losing their religion know to them as the God of Exodus,to the Canaanites god of fertility Ba'al.They had been specificily warned about Not worshipping this false god of fertility Ba'al,By their own God of Exodus.The original message given to the Israelites seemed to imply that the Canaanites should be killed to avoid this problem.Later they realized what they should have done.They eventually decided to,and were able to rid themselves of the Canaanites and their gods.....
AnswerThe apparent size of the Promised Land differs in various parts of the Bbile. However, if the Promised Land was the land of the Canaanites, then modern Israel is much larger. For example, the Canaanites did not occupy the Negev Desert, from which Exodus says the Israelites travelled on their way to the Promised Land. Nor did the land of the Canaanites include Philistia - the coastal strip and foothills north from the Egyptian border to approximately where Tel Aviv is today.Ancient Israel and Judah actually occupied a quite small area, based on the mountainous hinterland and the Jezreel Valley.
Biblical Canaan is now Israel because God gave them the land. The Canaanites and Israelites melded together to form one nation.
The Canaanites were a Semitic-speaking people who inhabited the ancient region of Canaan, which is roughly equivalent to present-day Israel, Palestine, Lebanon, and parts of Jordan and Syria. They were a diverse group of tribes and city-states with a shared culture and language.
According to Phoenician mythology, the Canaanites were said to be the descendants of Canaan, who was a son of Ham, one of Noah's sons. This genealogy can be found in the Bible, particularly in the Book of Genesis.
40 years
Joshua
The Israelites were commanded to take Canaan (Israel) from the Canaanites (Deuteronomy ch.7), but they did so incompletely, allowing Canaanites to remain in various regions (Judges ch.1-2).
Caleb
According to the Book of Joshua, the Israelites conquered the entire land of the Canaanites and in doing so killed every person they found in the land. In spite of this, the Canaanites survived and according to the Book of Judges were soon, miraculously, able to oppress the Israelites. The period of the Judges is given in the Bible as 410 years, although in later years the main threat came from the Philistines and there were long periods of peace.However, historians and biblical scholars say there was no military conquest of Canaan and that the Israelites were themselves rural Canaanites who left the region of the rich coastal cities and settled peacefully in the hitherto sparsely populated hinterland. A glorious but legendary history evolved centuries later, telling of conquests under Joshua and of subsequent trials and oppression, with the Israelite God YHWH providing salvation when the Israelites were prepared to obey and worship him. Thus, these stories of oppression by the Canaanites were, in large part, legendary.
They didn't. They established themselves in Israel. The country was only renamed Palestine by the Romans AFTER the Hebrews were kicked out.Tradition says they established themselves in Israel by Abraham, around 2000 BCE. Later, they return to Israel and had to battle the Canaanites, who moved in after them.Modern scholarship suggests that they actually WERE the Canaanites.
Primarily Palestinian Arab, except for those who remained in Israel after its creation. (This was long after the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Jebusites, Girgashites, and Perizites, who eventually came to accept the existence of the Jewish state in their midst.)
AnswerThe first people we really know about, in what is now Israel, were the West Semitic people known in the Old Testament as Canaanites.
Answer 1There is no evidence ... historic, archaeological, or Biblical ...that the Canaanites ever oppressed Israel.Answer 2The Bible does note that there are stretches of time during which Canaanites or people from the surrounding nations (such as Edomites, Moabities, or Arameans) oppressed certain tribes in Israel, but this occurred intermittently and never over the entire Israelite territory. Furthermore, the nature of this oppression was markedly different between every oppressive tribe and oppressed Israelite tribe. Some confiscated material wealth while others raped and pillaged. However, the Judges period (according to the Bible) takes roughly 400 years of which around half of the time one tribe or another was being oppressed.

Her name was Deborah. The account referred to by the question is found in Judges 4.
The judges were sent, by God, to deliver Israel from their oppressors. The book of Judges is a repeating cycle of Israel turning away from God, then God allowing other nations to oppress Israel, then the people crying out to God for help, and God sending a judge to deliver them.
