There are places (plural) where the Bible mentions women (plural) as preachers (plural). The word prophetess is mentioned a total of 8 times in the entire Bible. If you look up the references, you will see in most cases that not only is the word prophetess mentioned, but also the name of the prophetess is given. Bear in mind that "to prophesy" means "to preach (tell forth)" as well as "to tell the future (forth-tell)". The references to prophetesses are as follows: Exod 15:20; Judges 4:4; 2Kings 22:14; 2Chr 34:22; Neh 6:14; Isa 8:3; Luke 2:36; Rev 2:20 In short, yes there is more than one woman preacher (prophet) in the Bible. |

Greetings Radioman. I'm wondering if Mary was perhaps wondering if there are women who function as prophets today based upon what she was referencing. What is your position on women and forth-telling? Blessings, mommapbs PS: In Istanbul as I type this and won't be back at my terminal for another day. |

Mommapbs: Good to hear from you from Istanbul. One of Mary's specific questions was: "Is it true there are no women prophets according to the bible?" This is the question I attempted to answer in my post -- one that can be answered based on clear passages of Scripture. As for her other questions, this issue is so controversial, I would just as soon not comment on it. On this matter opinions abound here on the forum. They're thick as fleas on a dog's back. :-) Take care and God bless, Radioman2 |
