For twenty years, the heavens have been silent. Under the crushing weight of King Jabin’s iron chariots, the fractured tribes of Israel have been reduced to starving ghosts in their own land. The fertile valleys belong to Sisera, a ruthless Canaanite warlord who rules through flawless military engineering and absolute terror. To resist is to be ground into the alkaline dust. But high in the Ephraimite hills, a different kind of storm is gathering beneath an ancient date palm. Deborah, a prophetess and Judge, has heard the voice of the Almighty break the long silence.

Beside the reluctant warrior Barak, she summons ten thousand to Kishon’s riverbank. Together, they ride into the storm, trusting Jehovah to scatter their enemies like chaff on the wind.
