In the Hebrew Bible, Abinoam (a-bin'-o-am, ab-i-no'-am, Biblical Hebrew: אבינעם), from Kedesh-naphtali, was the father of Barak who defeated Jabin's army, led by Sisera. He is mentioned in Judges 4:6, 4:12, 5:1, and 5:12.Cheyne and Black (1899), Encyclopaedia Biblica, entry for "Abinoam." p. 19.
The name means "the (divine) father is pleasantness". Where the Masoretic Text of the Hebrew Bible reads Avinoam, the Greek Septuagint manuscripts read Ab[e]ineem or Iabin.
