Jueces 5:27 Meaning and Commentary

Ver. 27 At her feet he bowed, he fell, he lay down
Perhaps at her first approach to him, and attempt to drive the nail, or at the blow she gave, he rose up, but she had done the business so effectually at the first stroke, that he dropped at once, and laid down his head again:

at her feet he bowed, he fell;
when she redoubled her blow:

where he bowed, there he fell down dead; and struggled and stirred no
more;
thus ingloriously did this general of a vast army die. This action is not otherwise to be justified, but by its being done through an impulse of the Spirit of God upon her, to take away the life of an implacable enemy of God's people; otherwise it might seem to be a breach of hospitality towards her guest she had invited in, and of the peace which subsisted between this general's prince and her husband; and therefore is not to be drawn into an example where there is no appearance of a divine warrant.

Jueces 5:27 In-Context

25 El pidi贸 agua, y ella le dio leche; en taz贸n de nobles le present贸 crema.
26 Su mano tendi贸 a la estaca, y su diestra al mazo de trabajadores; y maj贸 a S铆sara; le quit贸 la cabeza; hiri贸, y atraves贸 sus sienes.
27 Cay贸 encorvado entre sus pies, qued贸 tendido; entre sus pies cay贸 encorvado; donde se encorv贸, all铆 cay贸 muerto.
28 La madre de S铆sara asom谩ndose a la ventana aulla, mirando por entre las rejas, diciendo : 驴Por qu茅 se detiene su carro, que no viene? 驴Por qu茅 las ruedas de sus carros se tardan?
29 Las sabias mujeres de sus pr铆ncipes le respond铆an; y aun ella se respond铆a a s铆 misma.
