Background The army of the king of Hazor, under the command of the mercenary Sisera , harassed the Israelite tribes. Sisera s army was much stronger than any Israelite force sent into the field. At this time, the prophetess Deborah was Book of Judges judging Israel.

The prophetess scolded Barak, telling him that you shall not gain the glory in the expedition on which you are setting out, for the Lord will have Sisera fall into the power of a woman. However, Deborah agreed to come, and the army gathered at Kadesh , its number rising to 10,000. citation needed date October 2010 The battle The Israelites marched to Mount Tabor.

For examples, see Judges 20 1 3 and I Samuel 3 19 21. The name is derived from the Hebrew language Hebrew Be er meaning a well, and Sheva, meaning either the number seven, or to swear an oath . Archeological finds indicate that the site was used from the Chalcolithic period, around 4000 BCE, through to the sixteenth century CE. This was probably due to the abundance of underground water, as evidenced by the numerous wells in the area. The settlement itself dates from the early Israelite period, around the tenth century BCE. The streets of ancient Be er Sheva are laid out in a grid, with separate areas for administrative, military, commercial and residential use. The town is regarded as the first planned settlement in the region. The site is also noteworthy for its elaborate water system and huge cistern, carved out of the rock beneath the town.
