And she sent and called Barak the son of Abinoam out of Kedeshnaphtali, and said unto him, Hath not the LORD God of Israel commanded, [saying], Go and draw toward mount Tabor, and take with thee ten thousand men of the children of Naphtali and of the children of Zebulun?
Ver. 6. And she sent and called Barak.] She sent; not went: for, (1.) She was a judge in Israel, and of great authority; (2.) It is not fit for women to wander up and down. Ambrose saith Barak was her son, others her husband, but neither is likely.
Ten thousand men of the children of Naphtali.] In which tribe Hazor stood; and therefore their oppression was the greater. But ten thousand were but a few to go against so potent an enemy. a God can save with a little help. Dan 11:34
a Mashac, est occulto impetu aliquem impellere quo velis.
