St. Deborah the Prophetess’ story is told in Judges 4:4-5:31. She used to sit under a palm tree and the Israelites would come to her for judgements. She went with Barak to face the forces of Sisera, and God granted the Israelites victory. Judges 5 records the Song of Deborah and Barak, one of the oldest poems in the Bible.
