Sisera
Sisera was the captain of the army of Jabin, king of Canaan. He lived in Harosheth of the Gentiles. After his army was routed by Barak and Deborah on the plain of Esdraelon, Sisera fled to the tent of the Kenite chieftainess, Jael. He accepted Jael's invitation to enter her tent, and she covered him with a mantle as he lay wearily on the floor. When thirst kept Jael from sleeping, and he asked for water, Jael brought him buttermilk in her finest vessel. At last, with a feeling of perfect security, Sisera fell into a deep sleep. Then Jael took one of the great wooden stakes which fastened down the cords of the tent, and with one terrible blow of a mallet, dashed it through Sisera's temples deep into the earth. She then watied for the pursuing Barak and led him into her tent so she might claim the glory of Sisera's death.
