4And Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lapidoth, she judged Israel at that time.
5And she dwelt under the palm tree of Deborah between Ramah and Bethel in mount Ephraim: and the children of Israel came up to her for judgment.
any of you care to be judged by a woman? . . just curious

Israel was BACKSLID and having female rule was a rebuke to the men. Deborah had to call for a MAN to lead the armies of Israel and because he was a foolish enough to ask Deborah to go WITH him he would not gain the victory but it would be put in the hands of a girl with a tent stake.
Read the chapter well.
