#115 – Remembering 16 Lesser-Known Women of the Bible

Almost Heretical - Podcast tekijän mukaan Nate Hanson & Shelby Hanson - Keskiviikkoisin

In honor of #InternationalWomensDay, we're dedicating this episode to highlighting some of the lesser-known women of the Bible. We'll share a list of 16 of our favorite women who have been largely unheard of. We'll explore the Second Temple period and the narrative text of Joseph and Asinith, as well as the prophet Miriam and her mentions in the Dead Sea Scrolls. We'll also discuss the Apocrypha, a collection of texts that were removed from the Protestant Old Testament, and highlight the powerful stories of two women from that collection: Judith and Susanna. Let's celebrate the voices of these women who have long been overlooked and forgotten in the Bible. The 16 women are: Hagar, Vashti, Huldah, Women and the Nephilim, Batenosh, Emzara, Sarai, Aseneth, Miriam, Judith, Susanna, Anna, Woman at the Well, Woman who anoints Jesus, Salome, and Mary Magdalene.
