1 | 1. Sisera and Jael - asleep or not? | Judg 4:21 | prayon | 52455 | ||
I am trying to answer a few questions for someone and I am stumped. The first one is: Sisera was asleep when Jael killed him but Judges 5:26-27 in Deborahs song it says that she pierced his temple and he sank to her feet. I know the bible is not wrong so what is the answer? prayon | ||||||
2 | 1. Sisera and Jael - asleep or not? | Judg 4:21 | Ray | 52628 | ||
Hi prayon, I am reminded of an old western story about Wyatt Earp or Billy the Kid where some person shoot them in the back without warning and by the time he hits the floor, dead, he has turned with his pistol drawn to meet his assailant. That makes for a good story, but it also tells of the reflexes of the body. I can envision the woman Jael straddling Sisera, hammer and peg in hand while he is sleeping. After striking him and killing him, he still had reflex reactions and bent at the waist, bowing, sinking back dead at her feet. And that's the most I want to think about it, thank you. From the heart, Ray |
