Explanation

Kambili and her brother, Jaja pay occasional visits to the home of Aunty Ifeoma in Nsukka. The contrast between Eugene's household and Aunty Ifeoma's home is strilcing and this reveals aspects of Kambili's character which have never before been seen.

Eugene's almost regimental behaviour has left Kambili a withdrawn, taciturn, if not forlorn child. The emotional aridity of Eugene's home contrasts sharply with the warm, vivacious and liberal atmosphere of Aunty Ifeoma's home. The children's visit to Aunty Ifeoma to spend time with her and her children after Eugene has beaten Kambili unconscious marks a watershed in the action of the novel. The short time they spend with Aunty Ifeoma exposes Kambili and Jaja to freedom and cordiality they have never ben exposed to before. Kambili, the quiet, withdrawn girl now starts to ask questions to probe her surroundings. An instance could be seen when Kambili overhear a discussion between Aunty Ifeorna and a colleague of hers about turmoil in the university. Kambili asks Amaka to explain what is happening in the university. In the past, this would have been unthinkable. Now, she is bold enough to question what is happening around her. While Eugene had conditioned her to an unquestionable acceptance to whatever he told her, Aunty Ifeoma's home has opened up a whole new vista of experience in which the child could demand to have a say in her own future. The chains of enslavement, as it were„ are now falling off.

On the domestic scene we notice a transformation and self discovery of Kambili who hitherto has found it difficult to handle household chores, now becoming a good cook and a warm conversationalist. Another aspect of Kambili's character revealed in Aunty Ifeoma's house is her open relationship to members of the opposite sex. Up to now, the dominant man in her life has been her father towering over her like a colossus, willing her to do his bidding and not to ask questions. Now, in Aunty Ifeoma's house, she meets another man, a different kind of man altogether, Father Amadi. Whereas in the past, the clergy have been synonymous with oppressive long church services made worse by her being compelled to fast for the first time, she meets a clergyman who has a human face. She therefore finds herself falling in love. The shy girl who in the past will not even consider having a relationship with the opposite sex now opens up to a man and starts looking forward to spending time with him.

Explanation

A. THE CIRCUMSTANCES THAT LED TO THE CALL OF DEBORAH TO BATTLE WITH JABIN (JUDGES 4)

I. The Israelites in the time of Joshua took a covenant/oath that they would not mix the worship of Yahweh with the worship of other gods.

ii. But, Israel defected from worshipping God alone and instead, served Baal and Ashtoreth, the gods of the Canaanites.

iii. Yahweh was displeased by this behaviour and thus, delivered Israel into the hands of their enemies who oppressed them severely and plundered them.

iv. Whenever they went to war, they were defeated as God had planned.

v. As a result of their suffering and punishment, the people prayed to God for deliverance from their oppressors.

vi. Yahweh was moved by the groaning of the oppressed Israelites and raised up Judges who delivered them from their enemies.

vii. However, when the Judges died, Israel went back to sin against God.

viii. Thus, the background to the call of Deborah followed a pattern of disobedience, punishment, prayer for forgiveness, and deliverance through one of the Judges.

ix. It was after the death of one of such Judges-(Ehud) that Israel sinned against God who gave them up to the Canaanite King- Jabin to oppress them for twenty years.

x. When Israel cried for mercy, God raised Deborah, a prophetess and a judge, to come to their rescue.

xi. Upon God's instructions, Deborah summoned Barak to gather 10,000 men at mount Tabor against Jabin and his army commander, Sisera.

xii. Deborah added that God had promised to give victory to Barak.

xiii. Barak, however insisted that he would go to the battle if only. Deborah went with him.

xiv. Deborah agreed but added that the victory would go to a woman.

xv. When Sisera heard that Israel had gone up to mount Tabor, he called up his men to fight Barak and Deborah, but the Canaanites were defeated.

xvi. After losing his entire army, Sisera fled on foot to the tent of Jael, the Kenite to seek asylum.

xvii. He was given hospitality but when he was asleep, Jael drove a peg into his throat with a hammer and killed him.

xviii. She presented his body to Barak who was pursuing Jabin.

xix. Jabin, the King of Canaan was also killed and the Israelites became free again and livel peacefully.

xx. This was in accordance with the principle of Deuteronomy that obedience to God leads to peace and prosperity, whereas disobedience leads to pain, suffering and defeat.
