All of the Women of the Bible Kindle Edition

by Edith Deen (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars 339 ratings
See all formats and editions
A comprehensive history with more than 300 biographies of every woman in the Bible, both the named and nameless, the famous and infamous. 

All the Women of the Bible offers a rich biographical perspective on every female figure in scripture—including the famous, the little-known, and even the unnamed. In more that 300 engaging and insightful portraits, Edith Deen brings alive the saints and sorceresses, queens and servants, mothers and daughters, wives and widows whose profound influence is felt through-out the Bible.

“You can almost trace light and darkness in the Bible by the women themselves,” she writes. “Hannah, praying mother of Samuel, gave birth to a son who became the first great Hebrew prophet. And, of course, there was the mother of Jesus. On the other hand, Jezebel and Herodias were vile influences, the first tearing apart the northern kingdom of Israel, the second causing John the Baptist to be beheaded.”

Combining thorough detail with a lively and dramatic narrative, All of the Women of the Bible portrays the real women behind the Biblical stories and shows how, in their human struggles and triumphs, they are very much like the women of today. With each major biography identified by Bible chapter and verse and prefaced by a key passage of scripture, this is an ideal resources for teachers, Bible students, preachers, and writers, as well as anyone who wants to learn what it was really like to be a woman in Biblical times.

Use this product along with Bible study. Able to get more detail into the lives of the women and the impact they may have upon the culture at that period of time.

I really love this book. It's easy to follow, I'm walking around the house with the book in my hands because I can't wait to read about the next woman. This book brings every thing together and how important these women were and how much they reflex a lot of what's going on today.

I am using this book for a Women's Bible Study Group. We are only into the Second chapter but I can say that we are finding the subject and the author's take on the subject leads to a lot of discussion.

5.0 out of 5 stars A book from the 50s but SO thorough--a good tool for study.

I have had and used my copy of Edith Deen's All of the Women of the Bible since I went to seminary in the 80s and 90s. I've used it, inconjunction with Miriam Therese Winters' 3 volume book of WomenWord, WomenWitness, WomenWisdom as a basis for teaching a class on All the Women of the Bible, for researching women's stories for a playwright, and for my own pleasure. I recommend this book as a starting place for learning about the women, named and unnamed, in the Bible.

I enjoyed reading this book and appreciated the excellent descriptive layouts of listing all the women of the Bible. The author, Edith Deen, has tried to stay true to the Scriptures and also shared extra information of the times and locations these women lived in. Am grateful for the author's work and time to write of these women who exemplified triumphs and falls in their lives, and we learn lessons from them and we are the blessed ones.

This book was recommended to me and I purchased more than 1 copy. I am well pleased with the content and the extent of the information along with the way the information is arranged in the table of contents. I lead a women's ministry group and we have found that this is a good resource for studying the different women of the bible and it good information about some women that we knew nothing about. I have recommended this to others.
