The Spirit of God doth manifestly speak in the Old Testament, pronouncing a malediction and curse upon that people where a woman reigneth. And the prophets, by the mouth of Deborah herself, declare that it was shame and confusion for Israel to be governed by a woman, which shame Barak sustained when Deborah went with him to battle.
