SEV Biblia, Chapter 4:10
¶ Y juntó Barac a Zabulón y a Neftalí en Cedes, y subió con diez mil hombres de a pie, y Débora subió con él.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Judges 4:10
Verse 10. Ten thousand men at his feet] Ten thousand footmen. He had no chariots; his army was all composed of infantry.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 10. And Barak called Zebulun and Naphtali to Kedesh , etc.] This he did either by the sound of a trumpet, as Ehud did, or by sending messengers to them to collect ten thousand men from among them, which they accordingly did, and came to him in Kedesh: and he went up with ten thousand men at his feet ; they following him up to Mount Tabor cheerfully and readily, being all footmen; for the Israelites had no cavalry, and yet got the victory over Sisera’s army, which, according to Josephus f89 , had ten thousand horses in it: and Deborah went up with him ; and his ten thousand footmen, to the top of Mount Tabor, to encourage him and them with her presence, and give her best advice when to descend and engage the enemy.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 10-16 - Siser's confidence was chiefly in his chariots. But if we have groun to hope that God goes before us, we may go on with courage an cheerfulness. Be not dismayed at the difficulties thou meetest with it resisting Satan, in serving God, or suffering for him; for is not the Lord gone before thee? Follow him then fully. Barak went down, thoug upon the plain the iron chariots would have advantage against him: he quitted the mountain in dependence on the Divine power; for in the Lor alone is the salvation of his people, Jer 3:23. He was not deceived in his confidence. When God goes before us in our spiritual conflicts, we must bestir ourselves; and when, by his grace, he gives us some succes against the enemies of our souls, we must improve it by watchfulnes and resolution.
