Peter Leithart, Jeff Myers, James Bejon, and Alastair Roberts continue their discussion of Judges 4, following Deborah and Barak from the summons to battle through Sisera’s defeat at the Kishon. They explore the story’s echoes of the Exodus, the significance of Barak’s name, and the return of Zebulun and Naphtali to the fight after their earlier failures in Judges. Along the way they consider Heber the Kenite’s relationship with Israel and Canaan, Jael’s coming role, and whether the torrent in Deborah’s song describes a flood, Barak’s army, or both. The episode closes with Sisera fleeing on foot while Barak pursues and destroys his army.
