SEASON 6 | Episode 41: Deborah

The book of Judges falls into a familiar pattern: Israel falls into a pattern of sin, God allows a rival nation to seize control of them, God sends a judge to call the people to repentance, Israel repents, God gives them victory over their enemies. It’s predictable but still makes for one of the most entertaining books of the Bible! Deborah was one such judge. During Israel’s oppression under Jabin, King of Canaan, and the commander of his army, Sisera, Deborah knew that the Lord was ready to deliver them into Israel’s hands. There was just one thing standing in the way; Barak, the very timid commander of Israel’s army. So Deborah decides it’s time to have a word with him...
