'The Palm Tree of Deborah' (Tomer Deborah) is an ethical discourse devoted to the doctrine of the imitation of the Almighty. This pietistic volume was written by Rabbi Moshe Kordovero in the 16th century. In his book, Kordovero proceeds systematically through the various known attributes of God and explains how we as humans can work on improving ourselves by imitating those attributes to the best of our ability. It was named after the Book of Judges 4:5: ÒAs she sat under the palm-tree of Deborah between Ramah and Beth-El in the hill-country of Ephraim; and the children of Israel came up to her for judgment.Ó
