Who was Deborah?
Deborah (Dĕbʹ ô răh) – found in the book of Judges, was prophetess and 4th judge of Israel. She judged Israel for 20 years under the rule of the king of Hazor. Deborah roused the people from their lethargy. Her fame spread far and wide and she became a “mother in Israel” and “the children of Israel came up to her for judgment” as she sat in her tent under the palm tree “between Ramah and Bethel. She organized and army of 10,000 men of Zebulun and Naphtali, and lead them to Mount Tabor where they gained a great and decisive victory after which the “song of Deborah” was written. After Moses, only Samuel filled the same combination of offices: prophet, judge, and military leader.
