(Debra, Debora, Deberah, Deboran, Debir, Devora, Dwora) [12th Century B.C.] was the only woman in the Bible to reach great power by common consent of the People. Sitting beneath her palm tree, she would counsel and settle disputes between Israelites from different tribes. She convinced Israel's best general to attack her people's oppressor and foresaw their victory, celebrated in the Song of Deborah.
