Bible Question: who in the bible was a victim of vilifying , this mean making some one else out the bad guy |
Bible Answer: Greetings, I'm not aware of any single person who did this or was the victim of this, but one that does come to mind for me is Eve. Women in biblical times were treated poorly. In fact, it's only within the past century or so that women have even gained equal rights. There are still some nations that still treat women poorly. A lot of it has to do with Eve being the one who first ate of the forbidden fruit. Now, one thing that I point out to people is that according to the text, Adam was standing right beside her. He, more than anyone, should have known that Eve was about to break God's command. It was his duty to protect her, but he didn't. In fact, he later puts the blame on her. So, yes, she sinned also, but I would see her also as a victim of being vilified, and generations of women have suffered as a result. Jalek |
