Exercising the rules of First and Complete mention, students of the Word will find that the matriarchs of Israel hold the crimson thread leading the patriarchs back to the Land Covenant and People of Israel in these roles: Sister Virtuous Woman Or Wife Harlot Mother Daughter Adulteress Shepherdess These female roles will teach about the Holy Spirit either working or not being permitted to work in the lives of men.
