 Ba·rak /bəˈrɑk/

From: Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary

 Barak
    lightning, the son of Abinoam (Judg. 4:6). At the summons of
    Deborah he made war against Jabin. She accompanied him into the
    battle, and gave the signal for the little army to make the
    attack; in which the host of Jabin was completely routed. The
    battle was fought (Judg. 4:16) in the plain of Jezreel (q.v.).
    This deliverance of Israel is commemorated in Judg. 5. Barak's
    faith is commended (Heb. 11:32). "The character of Barak, though
    pious, does not seem to have been heroic. Like Gideon, and in a
    sense Samson, he is an illustration of the words in Heb. 11:34,
    'Out of weakness were made strong.'" (See DEBORAH.)

From: Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary (late 1800's)
