Bible Question: How did Abraham, Issac and Jacob show respect for women? |
Bible Answer: Abram showed complete, and total lack of respect for his wife, when at Gen 12:-18. Although the Lord put a stop to this see v 17, it did not stop Abraham doing the same thing all over again see Gen 20:1-11. His son Isaac did exactly the same to his wife, see Gen 26:1-10. No these men did not show respect for women, but treated them with utter contempt, and were prepared to offer their wives to be used sexually by other men, in order to save their own lives. |
