Question

Marcus Reiner named a dimensionless number after this person on account of the verse, “the mountains (15[1])melted from before the LORD,” which is attributed to her. Rabbis debate whether one phrase refers to this woman’s husband or is describing her (15[1])as a “woman of torches.” The otherwise-unknown city Meroz is cursed “because they came not to the help of the LORD” in a passage that proclaims that this woman “arose (15[1])as a mother (15[1])in Israel.” This woman, who is introduced as a prophetess who sits under a (*) palm tree, (10[3])predicts the death of an enemy who is killed by a woman with a tent peg. (10[1])This woman urges Barak to fight (10[1])the Canaanite general (10[1])Sisera, then sings a victory-song (-5[1])after their triumph, while serving in a role later (10[1])held by Jephthah, Gideon, and (10[1])Samson. For 10 points, name this only female judge. ■END■ (10[1])
