The divine search for equality

in #steemchurch5 years ago

text ponder: Numbers 27.1-11

This chapter refers to the women who came to appear before Moses, they were: Zelophehad, of the tribe of Manasseh, had five daughters and had no children, their names were Maala, which means "sickness" or "sickness"; Noa, which means "rest" or "rest"; Hogla, which means "partridge" "boxer"; Milca, which means "queen" or "lawyer"; and Tirsa, which means "pleasant"
If we accept these names as representing their abilities, character, or the adversities they had to face, we have before us a complete picture of the tenacity, tact, courage, wisdom and grace they needed to ask for and receive an inheritance.

The presentation of his case before Moses and the leaders of Israel, when the land was being divided among the tribes, is the first appeal we find in the Bible in favor of the equality of women's rights
The power of this example lies in the wisdom they showed in trusting God so that their request was not denied, all of them expressed a spirit of confrontation and a spirit of perfectly balanced cooperation
The spirit of confrontation is illustrated by his attack on injustice, and that of cooperation, his acceptance of the decision made by the elders that they should marry within their own tribe

God defended them because they recognized him as a provider and liberator, they show how to overcome inequality in our days while maintaining a spirit of consecration.

¡Worthy example of imitation in these wise women!

The consecrated women have always made history @xioran, truly this is an act of warrior women, courageous and determined that stood to overcome inequality in women, God rewarded his efforts because he honors good decisions

Excellent @xioran, I like the example you took with these five women to exemplify the struggle for inequality
