וְ֠הִיא יוֹשֶׁ֨בֶת תַּֽחַת־תֹּ֜מֶר דְּבוֹרָ֗ה בֵּ֧ין הָרָמָ֛ה וּבֵ֥ין בֵּֽית־אֵ֖ל בְּהַ֣ר אֶפְרָ֑יִם וַיַּעֲל֥וּ אֵלֶ֛יהָ בְּנֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל לַמִּשְׁפָּֽט׃
Elle siégeait au pied du "Palmier de Débora", entre Rama et Béthel, dans la montagne d’Ephraïm; et c’est à elle que les Israélites s’adressaient pour obtenir justice.
Rashi on Judges
Under [Devorah's] date tree. She owned date trees in Yericho.
Metzudat David on Judges
Under the date palm: So that she not be secluded with the men who would come to her for judgement, she fixed her place under the date palm. As there is no place for seclusion there (Megillah 14:1).
Radak on Judges
Tomer: It is like, tamar (date). And Yonatan translated the verse (in the Targum) like this, "And she sat in the town, etc." And it can be said, according to its plain sense, that she had a house under a date palm. And that which it said, Devorah, (again) is additional identification, for she was already mentioned. And it stated, "And she," [because] we knew that it was speaking about her, and [since] it mentioned, Devorah, after this for additional identification. As this is the way of the language, as in (Genesis 6:9), "These are the generations of Noach, Noach," and others beside it.
