MAJOR JUDGES
MINOR JUDGES
Other info: Delilah was Samson's girlfriend
In the Hebrew Bible, major judges are prominent figures like Deborah, Gideon, and Samson, known for their significant roles in Israel's history. Minor judges, on the other hand, are less well-known figures such as Tola, Jair, and Ibzan, who also served as leaders and deliverers of the Israelites. Both major and minor judges were raised up by God to rescue the Israelites from various oppressors.
The six major judges in the book of Judges are Othniel, Ehud, Deborah, Gideon, Jephthah, and Samson. Each of these judges played a significant role in delivering the Israelites from their oppressors during that time.
There are 13 judges spoken of in the book of Judges. Those were not the only judges in Israel's history, however. Some consider Joshua to be a judge, though he is not officially recognized as such. Samuel, on the other hand, is a judge; and becomes the last prior to the rise of the Israeli kings.
The two types of prophets are major prophets and minor prophets. Major prophets like Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel have longer books in the Old Testament, while minor prophets like Hosea, Joel, and Malachi have shorter books.
The last of the Hebrew Judges is Samuel. He is considered the first of the major prophets because he played a significant role in anointing and advising the first two kings of Israel, Saul and David.
Major prophets, such as Isaiah and Jeremiah, wrote longer books in the Bible, while minor prophets, such as Amos and Micah, wrote shorter books. Major prophets addressed bigger themes and events in Israel's history, while minor prophets focused on specific messages for certain times and places. Both major and minor prophets were chosen by God to deliver His word to the people.
If you're asking about the Book of Judges, no distinction is made concerning major or minor. Rather, some of the Judges are better-known, because their leadership is narrated in greater detail, while other Judges are mentioned only briefly (Judges 12:8-15). This does not mean that they were minor in any way, but simply that there was quiet during their lifetime. See also:More about the Judges

Neither. Gideon was one of the judges of Israel. His story is found in Judges chapters 6-8.Further, Major and Minor Prophets refer to the length of the prophetic books found in the Christian Old Testament. It does not refer to the importance of the prophet or the importance of their writings. In fact, it doesn't refer to the person at all; only to the book.
