Barak had a clear command: go up, take ten thousand men, I will give Sisera into your hand. He had one condition: I won't go without you. Deborah agreed to go—and quietly named what that condition would cost him. The honor would go to a woman. Not Deborah. Jael. A woman with a tent peg and a sleeping general in her home. God built His deliverance out of a reluctant general, a fearless prophetess, and someone no one saw coming.
