Deborah was a prophetess of God, the fourth Judge of pre-monarchic Israel, counselor, warrior, and the wife of Lapidoth according to the Book of Judges of Sacred Scripture.

While the "saints" that the Church honors are usually men and women who lived after the birth of Christ (thus, for instance, we do not speak of Moses or Abraham or David as "saints"), the Catholic Church knows that all those who are admitted to the state of heaven are saints of the Church Triumphant, and this includes Deborah.
