Unsung Sisters of Action: דְּבוֹרָה Debora [Tobit's Grandmother]


Tobit 1:8

"And the third I gave unto them to whom it was meet, as Debora my father's mother had commanded me, because I was left an orphan by my father."


Facts:
Name Origin:The bee from it's systematic instincts; Bee
Tribe: Naphtali
Husband: Ananiel son of Aduel
Characteristics: Strong, Wise, Humble, meek, loving, obedient, virtuous,  



Action:
Sister Debora is the embodiment of the woman describe in Proverbs 31!
Tobit’s life illustrates the teachings of the laws, statues and commandments afforded him by his grandmother.

Facing rumors and gossip all the while suffering the heartache of losing her son Tobiel to idoltary, Debora continue to put forth good works. Have you ever stopped to consider the mental anguish a father and mother may feel when their son or daughter goes astray from their upbringing? Their son Tobiel fell from the house of Jerusalem revolted and sacrificed unto the heifer Baal leaving his son orphan. The scriptures doesn't mention Tobit's mother but we must not assume the worst.

In holy behavior Debora accepted her son’s parental duties providing Tobit with a loving and caring home with all things considered. Debora's actions in doing so is a great example of charity taught to us by YHWH. As instructed by the Lord in Deuteronomy 6:5-7 Debora raised Tobit in all the ways of the Heavenly Father.

Once Tobit became a man he kept the ways of the Most High as commanded by his grandmother in giving many almsdeeds and remembering the laws with all his heart. Tobit became a vigilant man who guided his own house well. Married to a sister of his own kindred named Anna they had a son named Tobias and continued the system of teaching him in the ways of YHWH!
