Packet 6: Bonus 10
A song named for this figure calls Jael the “most blessed of women.” For 10 points each:
[10h] Name this figure who was aided by Barak in defeating the general Sisera. This figure held a tribunal under a palm tree situated between Ramah and Bethel.
ANSWER: Deborah [accept “Song of Deborah”]
[10m] Deborah held the same position as the victim of this action, who had earlier killed 1,000 Philistines with the jawbone of an ass. This action resulted in its victim losing his supernatural strength because it violated a Nazirite vow. A description is acceptable.
ANSWER: the cutting of Samson’s hair [accept answers that describe Samson’s head being shaved; accept answers referring to Delilah’s betrayal of Samson; accept Shimshon in place of Samson; prompt haircuts or similar answers that do not mention “Samson”]
[10e] Deborah and Samson were holders of this position. Holders of this position led the Israelite tribes before they had a king, as recounted in a namesake Old Testament book.
ANSWER: judges [or shophet or shoftim; accept Book of Judges]
