- Deborah, one of the most talked about women in the Bible, tells Barak they should take on the Canaanite army. But he worries they don't stand a chance against Canaanite commander Sisera and his modern technology. Deborah assures Barak they've got G-d on their side. As Deborah prophesied, a woman settles the score with Sisera. Judge Deborah, a prophet and warrior, came after Shamgar who followed Ehud in the Book of Judges.

- The Judge Ehud squares off with King Eglon of the Moabites in an effort to save the Israelites, decades after the prophet Joshua steps down.

- Learn the story of Samson in this animated short from G-dcast. Samson: the judge with the luxurious locks of hair! His strength, wrapped up in long, flowing hair, was given to him by God to save the Israelites. But Samson was no faultless hero - rather, he was prone to chasing women and taking advantage of his legendary strength to win bets and slay armies. His reign of violence put an end to the Judges, causing only momentary peace followed by yet another takeover.
- "Ready for a battle waged via shofar? After the Midianites took over, the Israelites turned back to G-d. More than 22,000 soldiers volunteered to fight the Midianites but with the strength of G-d, Gideon only needed 300. So he tested the soldiers to drink from nearby waters and chose only those who lapped the water. By doing little more than triumphantly blowing their shofars and banging wildly on pottery, Gideon and his truncated crew experienced a miracle and drove away the Midianites."
