From:
Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary
Deborah
a
bee
. (1.)
Rebekah's
nurse
.
She
accompanied
her
mistress
when
she
left
her
father's
house
in
Padan-aram
to
become
the
wife
of
Isaac
(
Gen
. 24:59).
Many
years
afterwards
she
died
at
Bethel
,
and
was
buried
under
the
"
oak
of
weeping
",
Allon-bachuth
(35:8).
(2.)
A
prophetess
, "
wife
" (
woman
?)
of
Lapidoth
.
Jabin
,
the
king
of
Hazor
,
had
for
twenty
years
held
Israel
in
degrading
subjection
.
The
spirit
of
patriotism
seemed
crushed
out
of
the
nation
.
In
this
emergency
Deborah
roused
the
people
from
their
lethargy
.
Her
fame
spread
far
and
wide
.
She
became
a
"
mother
in
Israel
" (
Judg
. 4:6, 14; 5:7),
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
."
Preparations
were
everywhere
made
by
her
direction
for
the
great
effort
to
throw
off
the
yoke
of
bondage
.
She
summoned
Barak
from
Kadesh
to
take
the
command
of
10,000
men
of
Zebulun
and
Naphtali
,
and
lead
them
to
Mount
Tabor
on
the
plain
of
Esdraelon
at
its
north-east
end
.
With
his
aid
she
organized
this
army
.
She
gave
the
signal
for
attack
,
and
the
Hebrew
host
rushed
down
impetuously
upon
the
army
of
Jabin
,
which
was
commanded
by
Sisera
,
and
gained
a
great
and
decisive
victory
.
The
Canaanitish
army
almost
wholly
perished
.
That
was
a
great
and
ever-memorable
day
in
Israel
.
In
Judg
. 5
is
given
the
grand
triumphal
ode
,
the
"
song
of
Deborah
,"
which
she
wrote
in
grateful
commemoration
of
that
great
deliverance
. (
See
LAPIDOTH
T0002240,
JABIN
[2].)
