Exodus 20:12

“Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the LORD your God is giving you."

From Background Notes [BN] for May 7th & 8th written by Pastor Bob Brown:

Israel’s story is filled with the lives of many honored women, some of whom were literal mothers, while the others represent motherhood on a higher level.



Following the drama of womanhood in the Bible, involves us with notable characters who shaped the people of God as mothers in this greater sense. They nurtured faithful offspring which became a nation, not only in the narrower role of nuclear families, but also in the higher sense of becoming spiritual mothers of faith. Our study for this Mother’s Day weekend will examine the contributions, challenges, and breakthroughs of devoted women in the Bible. In so doing, we will pay close attention to the developing place of women in the community of faith. [BN,1]
