She is introduced in the Book of Judges as a prophetess and the only female judge of Israel. Her story is primarily found in Judges 4 and 5. Deborah is depicted as a wise and courageous leader who, under divine inspiration, summons Barak to lead an army against the Canaanite oppressor, Sisera. Her faith and leadership are celebrated in the "Song of Deborah," a victory hymn recorded in Judges 5, which is one of the oldest passages in the Bible. The song praises God for the deliverance of Israel and highlights Deborah's role as a "mother in Israel" (Judges 5:7, BSB).
