Jo Ann Skousen reexamines the women in Jesus Christ's mortal genealogy—Eve, Noah's wife, Sarah, Rebekah, Leah, Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, Bathsheba, and Mary—plus Mary Magdalene. Combining close literary reading, biblical scholarship, and LDS doctrine, she recovers these matriarchs from centuries of misjudgment, showing them as bold, resourceful women who used wit and faith to fulfill God's purposes. Each chapter connects an ancient woman's story to the teachings of Christ and to challenges facing women today.
- Reclaims the 'bad girls of the Bible' as heroic, faithful women equal to their tasks
- Reveals the hidden meaning of 'help meet' as 'a power equal to Adam'
- Every chapter connects an ancient matriarch to the teachings of Christ—and to women today
- Perfect Old Testament companion that centers the women usually skipped over
“The essence of womanhood is to be a powerful savior and rescuer.”
Perfect for an LDS woman who loves scripture study and wants a richer, more empathetic understanding of the women in the Bible's messianic lineage.
