What did the life of women actually look like during the time of the Hebrew Bible both in Israel and in the surrounding ancient Near East? Dr. Hélène Dallaire gives us a taste of her newest course that she teaches at Denver Seminary. Dr. Dallaire brings the world of the Hebrew Bible to life by giving vivid pictures of both the general life of women as well as specific women. She talks about the woman who is the first named scribe in world history, how archaeology paints a picture of life in the home for women, the forgotten prophetess who spearheaded one of the greatest reforms in the Bible, why there are no female priests in Scripture, God’s ideal vision for men and women in Scripture, and more.
