Lydia, widow and seller of purple(very lucrative).

Proverbs 31!(she didn’t always stay home but made home a very profitable enterprise...”she looketh upon a piece of property to buy it!”

Satanic? only if the children’s needs weren’t being met, perhaps.

Yes, the Proverbs 31 wife of noble character is portrayed as being wise with the things to which she had been entrusted by her husband, including business enterprises.

But nowhere is it said that "she findeth a solid day job outside the home and raketh in the dough in equal or greater measure to that of her husband."

That said, I don't think God is going to smite a woman for working to sustain the household.

“Lydia, widow and seller of purple(very lucrative).”

Widow. Widow. Widow.
