10. "Judge not, lest ye be judged", as the good book says. My first Deborah can be found among these sacred pages. One more hint - she was in the legal profession. What was this "Deborah"?
From Quiz Darling Deborahs
Answer:
A judge
Deborah is the only female judge mentioned in the Bible. She volunteered for the job when no man would step up. She would sit under a palm tree and people wanting her legal advice would visit her there. She could not hold court in her home because it was against the law for her to be in a house alone with a man.
When Deborah became a judge, Israel was under the thumb of a cruel monarch, King Yavin of Hazor. Deborah commanded her top general, Barak, to take 10,000 men to do battle with Sisera, the opponent's military leader. Barak was reluctant to go into this battle and would only go if Deborah came with him. She complied but told Barak that if they were victorious, then history would record that a woman defeated the enemy. Sisera was heavily favored, having over 900 chariots. But the chariots got stuck in the mud and the Israelites were soon victorious. Sisera, himself, was killed by an Israelite woman, Yale or Jale. Deborah was correct in her prophecy; it is she that people remember, not Barak.
