Sisera
Sis·era (sis′ər ə)
noun
Bible a military leader of the Canaanites against the Israelites, murdered by Jael: Judg. 4:17-22
Etymology: Heb sisera; prob. of Hittite orig.
He asked for water, and she brought him milk; she brought forth butter in a lordly dish. She put her hand to the nail, and her right hand to the workmen's hammer; and with the hammer she smote Sisera, she smote off his head, when she had pierced and stricken through his temples. At her feet he bowed, he fell, he lay down: at her feet he bowed he fell: where he bowed, there he fell down dead. The mother of Sisera looked out at a window, and cried through the lattice,Why is his chariot so long in coming? why tarry the wheels of his chariots?
