Jael, a woman from the traitorous group of Kenites, seizes the opportunity to kill Sisera, the commander of the Canaanite army, by driving a tent peg through his temple while he sleeps in her tent, fulfilling the prophecy of the woman's offspring bruising the serpent's head and foreshadowing the Messiah's ultimate victory.

Serpent Slayer — Jael’s Story

Press On is a Christadelphian journal. We publish engaging perspectives, expressed with enthusiasm and love for other believers. Press On aspires to stimulate growth in the Christadelphian community by helping it draw strength from its diversity, following the spirit of 1 Cor 12, and Rom 12 — one body, made up of different parts, all of whom are dependent on each other. As in the first century, our community of faith can benefit from both progressive and traditional perspectives so long as they are explored compassionately and without factionalism. That is what we are trying to do. As a listener of Press On, you may come across perspectives you have not encountered before. Some topics you may immediately resonate with and be thrilled by. Others you might disagree with. Our goal is that either way, you come away without feeling talked down to and with something worth considering.
