“The Patriarches like Voddie Baucham were more honest as they said her being a VP was a sin. Because she would be in a leadership position over her own husband and that would be a sin even in a secular venue.”

And when Deborah was judging Israel (Judges 4) do they think her husband, Lappidoth, was excluded. It does not say, “Now Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lappidoth, was judging everyone in Israel *except her husband*, at that time.” It appears that Israel, meant Israel.
