The book of Ruth

[MobilityCat]

The Book of Ruth has a quiet but strong feminist message. It shows the strength and agency of its main women, Ruth and Naomi:
Ruth chooses to stay with Naomi after losing her husband, showing great loyalty. She works hard to provide for them and takes bold steps to secure their future by approaching Boaz.
Naomi uses her knowledge to guide Ruth, showing how women can lead and support each other.
Ruth, a Moabite and outsider, becomes part of Israel’s history and even an ancestor of King David. This challenges the norms of excluding women and foreigners. The strong bond between Ruth and Naomi highlights the power of women supporting one another during tough times. The story celebrates women’s courage, intelligence, and impact, even in a male dominated society.

The above post sometimes you come here and find old content you didn't wish to post.

I came here though to say that I do find it very interesting as well about the other Holy Women who used to surround Anna in the Court of Women in the Temple. Many of these were diverse women but did not serve in the ministry. Their stories were significant and some really had a hard time previously in life of it like the women wiith seven demons that was driven out by Jesus. It shows how fogiving Jesus was.
