Lapidoth

Torches. Deborah is called “the wife of Lapidoth” (Judg. 4:4). Some have rendered the expression “a woman of a fiery spirit,” under the supposition that Lapidoth is not a proper name, a woman of a torch-like spirit.

Also from Smith's (1884) +

(torches), the inhabitants of Laodicea. (Colossians 4:16; Revelation 3:14)
