anonymous1: I posted my list to show how many more good women are mentioned in The Bible, than bad women.

All the women on my list, are good women.

Tamar was more righteoues than Judah, he said so himself.

Miriam, Deborah, and Huldah, were prophetesess.

Sara, is praised as a good woman by Paul.
The writer of Hebrews talks about Sara's faith.
The book of Hebrews also talks about Rahab's faith.

According to Jesus, The Queen of the South would condemn the generation he was speaking to.

Pilate's wife told him to have nothing to do with that just man, Jesus.
Pilate was wrong not to listen to his wife.

Ruth and Esther both have books in The Bible named after them.

The virgin Mary, was Jesus' mom.Adah

No.




The only Salome in The Bible, is Jesus' sister.




Is not this the carpenter's son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas?
Matthew 13:55

There were also women looking on afar off: among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome;
Mark 15:40


And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint him
Mark 16:1





Delilah betrayed Samson for money.


And the lords of the Philistines came up unto her, and said unto her, Entice him, and see wherein his great strength lieth, and by what means we may prevail against him, that we may bind him to afflict him; and we will give thee every one of us eleven hundred pieces of silver.

And Delilah said to Samson, Tell me, I pray thee, wherein thy great strength lieth, and wherewith thou mightest be bound to afflict thee.


Judges 16:5-6

No problem SM,

Not only does The Bible name lots of good women, it tells us that often times the person closest to God at a given time, was a woman.

When everybody had forgotten what the scriptures said, and had fallen away, it was a woman who set them back on course.

When king Josiah gave the commandment to enquire of the LORD, they went to a woman...





Go, enquire of the LORD for me, and for them that are left in Israel and in Judah, concerning the words of the book that is found: for great is the wrath of the LORD that is poured out upon us, because our fathers have not kept the word of the LORD, to do after all that is written in this book.

And Hilkiah, and they that the king had appointed, went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvath, the son of Hasrah, keeper of the wardrobe; (now she dwelt in Jerusalem in the college:) and they spake to her to that effect.

2 Chronicles 34:21-22









The first person Jesus showed himself to after his resurrection, was a woman.

Jesus sent a woman to tell the apostles, he had risen from the dead.




Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.

Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen the LORD, and that he had spoken these things unto her.

John 20:17-18

Behind every good man there is a good woman!

Maybe Samson had forgotton his place on earth and his path. His ego was starting to become more important to him than his faith in the Lord. Delilah did what she did out of jealousy, probably, but in doing so also was able to show samson his mistakes in believing in his ego above and beyond his Lord God. So even though she did a bad thing it was a lesson for samson that eventually led him back to the lord. Everyone we meet is there for our highest good whether its in a good or bad way. The learning of the lesson is the important part. Just my opinion!!
Sometimes we need to learn the lesson the hard way.

Maybe Sampson did something to Delila to make her mad. Maybe Delilah had enough and knew how to end it. grin

And every one of them put on the earth to serve men if you read the bible.

And any woman quoting that "behind every good man..........."

should be ashamed of herself! A woman should not need a man to define her!
