How God Describes His Daughters

A friend just researched how God describes women: help meet (Ge.2:18), wife (Ge.2:24), mother (Ge.3:20), fair (gen.12:11), willing hearted (ex.35:22), wise (ex.35:25), virgin (Lev.21:14), beautiful (Deut. 21:11), blessed (Jud.5:24), virtuous (Ru.3:11), of good understanding (1Sam.25:3), great (2Kings 4:8), fruitful (Ps.128:3), gracious (Pr.11:16), a crown to her husband (Pr.12:4), prudent (Pr.19:14), companion (Mal.2:14)

He says: I'm going to be looking at the difference in godly characteristics that God describes women, in contrast to men, as. It reveals a consistent theme throughout God's word of the complimentary distinctions between masculinity and femininity in a way that just referencing one chapter can't do. Another blast at feminism's destructive influence on the family.
