Holofernes

Holofernes was an Assyrian general who was sent by Nebuchadnezzar to take vengeance on Israel. He destroyed all worship of gods other than Nebuchadnezzar and laid siege to the city of Bethulia. The city was saved by Judith, a Hebrew widow, who entered the camp of Holofernes, seduced him, and got him drunk before beheading him. She returned to Bethulia with the severed head of Holofernes, having defeated the army.
