Bible Figure
Abinoam
human biblical figure (Judges)
Abinoam was the father of Barak, the military leader summoned by Deborah to fight Sisera.
Biography
Judges repeatedly identifies Barak as 'son of Abinoam' and associates the family with Kedesh in Naphtali. Abinoam himself does not act or speak in the narrative, and Scripture provides no further biographical information about him.
Biblical Significance
Abinoam's significance is genealogical, identifying Barak's family background. The biblical text does not support a fuller personal biography.
