“When the people of Israel cried out to the LORD for help, because Sisera had nine hundred iron chariots and had cruelly oppressed the Israelites for twenty years.” - Judges 4:3

Israel again fell into servitude, this time under the Canaanite King Jabin, whose army was commanded by the ruthless general Sisera, who possessed nine hundred fearsome iron chariots. The Lord raised up Deborah, a prophetess who was judging Israel from beneath a palm tree. She summoned the military commander, Barak, and relayed God's command for him to lead ten thousand men against Sisera's superior forces.

Barak hesitated, declaring he would only go if Deborah went with him. Deborah agreed but warned him that because of his lack of faith, the ultimate honor of defeating Sisera would go not to him, but to a woman. They led the army to Mount Tabor, where the Lord miraculously caused a torrential downpour, turning the plain into mud. Sisera's iron chariots became hopelessly stuck, and his army was routed. Sisera fled on foot to the tent of Jael, the wife of Heber the Kenite, who pretended to offer him sanctuary. While Sisera slept, Jael drove a tent peg through his temple, killing the feared general and securing the victory.

“The LORD discomfited Sisera and all his chariots and all his army with the edge of the sword before Barak.” - Judges 4:15
