Re: excursion on 'Deborah'
Obviously it's not 'very important' enough to Deborah, to answer a simple question. But I would like to take this opportunity to explain the name Deborah, which means 'bee'. It comes from the root D-B-R, which has the general meaning 'having large hind-quarters', in other words, a huge behind. This is appropriate for a bee, but I think if this fact was widely known, the name Deborah would rapidly go out of use :D
