Judges 4:22 - Ellicott's Commentary On The Whole Bible

Bible Comments

Behold, Sisera lay dead. — Thus the glory, such as it was, of having slain the general of the enemy passed to a woman (Judges 4:9). The scene which thus describes the undaunted murderess standing in the tent between the dead and the living chieftains — and glorying in the decision which had led her to fling to the winds every rule of Eastern morality and decorum — is a very striking one.

Judges 4:22

22 And, behold, as Barak pursued Sisera, Jael came out to meet him, and said unto him, Come, and I will shew thee the man whom thou seekest. And when he came into her tent, behold, Sisera lay dead, and the nail was in his temples.
