hi, this thread is inspired by the "bible characters trading cards" thread.... can we come up with a great list of female bible characters that were strong, decisive and inspiring?.
scully mentioned ja'el: drugging and driving a tent spike through the head (we all remember the awesome bible stories illustration) of the enemy general.. list yours along with a description of why they were so badass!.
.
Dinah: a survivor of a shit attempt to "blame the victim".
I don't know how the story is presented in mainstream Christian circles, but among the JWs this story was a cautionary tale to young girls that if they went off to have fun at parties they would get raped. And they'd only have themselves to blame.
Seems like in the biblical version her brothers went to exact revenge on the men who raped her. So I assume they didn't blame Dinah?

Salome... Delilah... Eve...
Cast in such a terrble light by the JWs. Seems like all the interesting women in the Bible were murderous temptresses!

i'm not joking.
this is in the family/children section on jw.org - mary - joshua - daniel - ruth - and more!.
i'm lmao that these are so similar to hockey cards or baseball cards that my siblings and i used to get in trouble for collecting when we were kids.
It doesn't get more badass than drugging an enemy general and then hammering a tent spike through his head.

"King Solomon was a fuckin' pimp! How many girlfriends do you and your friends in the congregation have? How many ways of making love can you do? Not as many as Jehovah's friend Solomon!"
"King David didn't let anyone get in the way of what he wanted! Are you as dedicated to your goals as he was? How many men would you have killed to get laid? What a shining example of pre-Christian dedication!"

Fer fucks sake -Esther was a bad ass and they describe her as having "a submissive spirit".
Don't want to give those JW girls too rousing of a role model!

jgnat- I was just going to say the same thing...
22 male and 3 female characters??
I haven't yet read any of the descriptions, but I'd wager the words used to describe the females are different than those of the males...
