zeborah: Zebra looking at its rainbow reflection (rainbow)
[It's been ages since I've done a Women in the Bible post, even though I've got a bunch ready to go. Today The Most Interesting Chapter in the Bible and Three poems from the book of Judges inspired me to tidy up a few more and get started posting again.

[The first one is super short, so go and read those two links up there; and I'll try to post one each Sunday morning for at least the next couple of months.]

Ahinoam (1 Samuel 14:50 - 20:30) is the wife of Saul, first king of Israel; they have three sons and two daughters. When Saul is mad at his eldest son, he calls him "You son of a perverse and rebellious woman" but of course we never hear enough about Ahinoam to even guess if there's any literal truth to this epithet.

[See, told you it was short.]
