Deborah (Hebrew: {דְּבוֹרָה}, Modern Dvora Tiberian Dəḇôrā ; "Bee", Arabic: دیبا Diba) was a prophetess of Yahweh the God of the Israelites. According to the Book of Judges, Deborah was the fourth Judge of pre-monarchic Israel. Being the only female judge in the vast history of Israel, Deborah led a successful counterattack against the forces of Jabin, king of Canaan and his military commander Sisera. Her story is told twice, in chapters 4 and 5 of Book of Judges.
