Barak

2 entries found.
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]
Barak
   lightning, the son of Abinoam (Judg. 4:6). At the summons of
   Deborah he made war against Jabin. She accompanied him into the
   battle, and gave the signal for the little army to make the
   attack; in which the host of Jabin was completely routed. The
   battle was fought (Judg. 4:16) in the plain of Jezreel (q.v.).
   This deliverance of Israel is commemorated in Judg. 5. Barak's
   faith is commended (Heb. 11:32). "The character of Barak, though
   pious, does not seem to have been heroic. Like Gideon, and in a
   sense Samson, he is an illustration of the words in Heb. 11:34,
   'Out of weakness were made strong.'" (See {DEBORAH}.)
From Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary (late 1800's) [hitchcock]
