“Deborah is Not a Judge
She is not a judge in the sense that the book of Judges defines a judge; she is not a military deliverer.17 Rather she is a prophetess, and as a prophetess, she commands and exhorts Barak with God’s own words and authority.” (emphasis mine)
Does anyone else see how ironic it is that in an attempt to keep a woman from having military control over a man, they have given spiritual control to Deborah, and set her up as a teacher over him? 
By defining prophetess as they have, it means that Philip’s four daughters who prophesied were teaching  men God’s word. By their own admission, women taught men in the New Testament.
