Bible Question:
what specific instructions does Peter give to women who are married to unbelievers? describe the women of Zion. How many items of finery did they have? (Isaiah 3:16-24) |
Bible Answer: smileysue, First Peter tells us that we must be submissive to the unbelieving husband so that he may be won over by our actions. Paul goes on to tell us in 1Cor 7:12-16 that we are not to divorce the unbelieving spouse because the husband is made holy through the believing wife and vice versa. In Isaiah 3 I dont believe you can count how many items they had. What the author was stressing was that the women of Judah had placed their emphasis on clothing and jewelry rather than God. They dressed to be noticed, to gain approval and to be fashionable. They were being self centered and self serving. smileysue, when you have quetions about more than 1 passage please put it in 2 different questions. It makes it easier to give a better answer. Thanks prayon |
