Judges 4:10 Summary
In Judges 4:10, Barak summons the tribes of Zebulun and Naphtali to join him in battle, and ten thousand men follow him, with Deborah by his side. This shows that Barak is taking steps to obey God's command, as given through Deborah (Judges 4:6-7), and that Deborah is committed to supporting Barak in his mission. Just like Barak, we can learn to trust God and seek guidance from His appointed leaders, and we can also learn to work together with others to achieve great things (Ecclesiastes 4:9-12). By following God's lead and working together, we can accomplish more than we thought possible.
