Barak steps up once he knows God is fighting for Israel. He leads the charge against the enemy & Sisera's 900 chariots personally. God defeats the Canaanites by sending a gushing storm of waters down the river Kishon. Sisera flees on foot after abandoning his likely bogged chariot. He finds what he believes to be a safe tent in Jael's home. Only to have Jael kill him with a tent peg. Jael, a women, claims the glory of killing the famed general, as predicted by Judge & prophet Deborah. But Barak's name is recorded in the Hebrews Heroes of the faith chapter. Israel has 40 years of peace under the leadership of Deborah (whose name means bee).
