Lappidoth

From BibleEncyclopedia.Net

lap´i-doth, -dōth (לפּידות, lappīdhōth, “flames,” “torches”; the King James Version, Lapidoth):

Deborah's husband (Judges 4:4). The Hebrew name is a feminine plural like Jeremoth (1 Chronicles 7:8), Naboth (1 Kings 21:1). The plural is probably intensive. Jewish interpreters have identified Lappidoth (“flames”) with Barak (“lightning”). Some have taken the words rendered “wife of Lappidoth” ('ēsheth lappīdhōth) as a description of Deborah, and have translated them, “woman of lights,” i.e. maker of wicks for the sanctuary; or “woman of flames,” referring to her prophetic zeal. These explanations are more interesting than probable.
