How very interesting...and you are RIGHT! Jewish lineage IS determined through the Mother.
Also, in the Genealogy of Yeshua given in the First Chapter of Matthew, there are Four Women mentioned:

Rahab of Jericho....A "Professional" Harlot,
Ruth.... A Moabite and a convert to Judaism,
Bathsheva....An Adulteress and possible accessory to the murder of her husband,
And Mary of Nazareth....who at first glance would have been classified as an "unwed" Teenage Mother.

The Women of the Bible have much to Teach us about God's Infinite Redemptive Love and Mercy, and how He uses the simple and foolish things of the world to confound the wise.

This Painting, from an Islamic Website,
Attempts to place Sarah in a Subordinate Role To Hagar
"I pray for those who are blind and deaf to His truth - that their hearts are softened, and their hate is subdued. May those who continue to plan evil be snared in traps of their own making."

Amen To Your Prayer, LibertyRocks.

Not on this thread, no. But in almost every concordance in the NT I have ever read, the only thing it says about Sarah is that she was Isaac’s mother.
There are many, many women who get short shrift in the concordances, if they are even mentioned at all.
Manoah
Does anyone even knpw who she was?

[Lera]

Manoah from the book of Judges ?
His wife was Samsons mother but it does not list her name.

What amuses me about liberal theologians is how they INSIST that the Bible (Especially the Old Testament) is "Sexist and Patriarchal". However, in comparison to the religions and cultures of the time, and even the contemporary cultures of the same geographic area, The Jewish and Christian Traditions are Far More Fair to Women than say, the 7th century Middle East. And yet, Liberals seem to align themselves with a culture that condones "Honor killing." Go Figure.

I am sorry. I did mean to say Mamoah’s wife. My bad. What I meant to point out was that the wife was the one the angel of G-d spoke to.

“And the angel of HaShem appeared unto the woman, and said unto her: ‘Behold now, thou art barren, and hast not borne; but thou shalt conceive, and bear a son.”
This is the Hebrew tradition of Dual Paternuty. Abba in Heavem abd Abba on earth. That every child has two fathers and only obe mother.

I posted in a hurry after just returming from a Dr. appointment. Had some tests done and was a still a tad woozed out. I am not usually so careless, but it has always been one of my pet peeves that all the evils of the world are lain at the feet of women in the Bible...
I am sorry. I know this isn’t really a discussion thread so I will try to hold this stuff back from now on.

Hebrews insisted that the women be as educated as the men. It wasn’t until the Hellenization of the Hebrews that women were pushed into the “kitchen” so to speak.

Prayers For The Peace Of Jerusalem and to all, in Jesus Name, Amen.

They align themselves with it because they hate God.
Liberalism has nothing to do with the freedom and education of women , they just use that as an excuse to manipulate them into doing what they want.
(take a good look at how they actually treat the women... what amazes me is how many not so bright women there are who actually fall for their tricks )

[Lera]

Interesting concept , thanks.
I sort of figured out what you meant before because I am used to having to figure out what I have written without my glasses (don’t feel bad I skip over entire sentences without them )
Hope you feel better.

Ah...the Multi-Tasking, Efficient, Smart, Proverbs 31 Woman!

That would be me! LOL!

Seriously, it was THAT passage that broke through my hippie-feminist-hard-boiled heart and SAVED ME!

Thank you for posting that Lera! It brought back a thirty year old memory of the first time i read it.
