Session 16 -Lesser Known Women in the Bible, FIVE UNNAMED WOMEN OF THE BIBLE

2-16-25 Biblical-Literacy

Mark taught Lesser-Known Women of the Bible with an emphasis on unnamed but significant women. Anonymity can sometimes speak volumes. Why no name? Various reasons: to prevent embarrassment, the person is unknown or sometimes used as a literary device. Examples of the later could be to 1) elevate a universal significance as with the Shuminite woman, which provided a lesson in hospitality, 2) bring divine action to the foreground or 3) deliver a dose of irony.

Today’s lesson focused on 3 unnamed women in the Bible:

Lot’s wife: turned into a pillar of salt. She made a choice that had consequences. Luke 17:32-33
Jephthah’s daughter: a rash vow causes his daughter to be a burnt offering.
The widow of Nain: Jesus demonstrated compassion for her situation.

Points for home:

Remember Lot’s wife
Pursue God
Don’t be an idiot
Never doubt the compassions of God

Listen to Mark teach insights into unnamed women in the Bible. Listen to him share the power of faith in the affairs of life. This world is not our home
