1; The Song of Deborah and Barak.
* Sang Deborah.
This verse briefly recites the subject of this inspired song,
which consists of eight stanzas: The first opens with a
devout thanksgiving. The second describes the magnificent
scenes at Mount Sinai, etc. The third states the apostasy and
consequent punishment of the Israelites. The fourth contrasts
their present happy state. The fifth censures the recreant
tribes of Reuben, Gad, etc. The sixth records the defeat of
the confederate kings of Canaan. The seventh contains a
panegyric on Jael. And the eight describes the fond
anticipations and disappointment of the mother of Sisera.
