@KuoEsser @michellemosier Now that you mention this part, I am more learning how significant that was. People read things differently and it is how you read something that impacts your thoughts on something. There is no wrong interpretation, only ones that are not the same as others.

[Joseph Hammann @hammannj3]

@SchoffSydney @michellemosier I strongly agree with your statement. The emphasis on the knowledge of women in this class was one of the most significant parts. Every person has their story that isn't looked at as much as what is physically written and I am glad we put the emphasis into that in class.

[Joseph Hammann @hammannj3]

@michellemosier much of a voice whom even through just one simple heroic action. That and learning the stories of the most vulnerable in Judges. Even the sinful women like Micah's mother were fun to learn about.

[Joseph Hammann @hammannj3]

@michellemosier #drmtheo111 #qotw14 It is hard to pick just one, but the "other" women in Judges stand out. When we look at women in Judges, we think of women like Deborah and Jael who are seen as the greatest heroes of the book, but I was amazed to learn of the other women who don't have as

[Joseph Hammann @hammannj3]

@KuoEsser @michellemosier Agreed. It shows that many times, we don't take the smallest things for granted. Yet, believing the change is a major puzzle piece. Those who believe are the key to entering the kingdom of heaven. Yet, it takes lots of sacrifice at the same time.

[Joseph Hammann @hammannj3]

@maddiepaul34 @michellemosier Agreed. It shows that good and evil are each going to exist in this world, one where God reigns, but it is the holiest that find their ways to the kingdom of heaven.

[Joseph Hammann @hammannj3]

@michellemosier #qotw13 #drmtheo111 My favorite parable from the Gospel of Matthew is the parable of the two sons. It shows the opposition of wants versus actions. It shows that if you are lazy in speech but responsible in action, you're the wiser. If vice versa, you're lazier and unloyal.

[Joseph Hammann @hammannj3]

@browne30xavier1 @michellemosier It's always fascinating learning of Jesus' stories of healing. It is wonderful learning of Jesus healing many people who were sick in wellness, sight, and spirit. For Jesus is our healer, of our sins.

[Joseph Hammann @hammannj3]

@JuliaConnerrr @michellemosier Agreed! It doesn't surprise me how people instantly make that connection since Jesus is the "Prince of Peace". It definitely shows the importance of God-self-others scale, which gets strongly ignored in modern society. Shows the Gospel is meant to be read mindfully, not literally

[Joseph Hammann @hammannj3]

@michellemosier #qotw12 #drmtheo111 The most important thing in my opinion about Jesus is how in Matt. 6:1-21, you shouldn't make it obvious that you give alms or pray. It is best to do so privately, and out of courage. Giving alms and praying isn't for showing off, it's for connection with God.

[Joseph Hammann @hammannj3]

@amortimer17 @michellemosier Interesting. I find Delilah interesting too, especially with the relationship with Samson, and it feels weird how she is often forgotten when thinking of many women in the Bible. Then again, that could be said for a lot of Biblical women.

[Joseph Hammann @hammannj3]

@MadisonFast5 @michellemosier I believe the story of Timnite woman definitely shows the dangerous world that was bestowed on the most vulnerable. She left herself very vulnerable, but her powers was how much she was doing so to protect those she loved.

[Joseph Hammann @hammannj3]

@michellemosier women in Judges in a negative way. She was very greedy and impatient and led a bad example for her son. Despite one being positive and the other negative, they are still both interesting to learn about.

[Joseph Hammann @hammannj3]

@michellemosier #drmtheo111 #qotw11 I am torn between Manoah's mother & Micah's mother, for opposite reason. Manoah was a caring and strong woman who was able to see God in ways that her husband couldn't, and borne an honestly not so great judge. Micah's mother definitely shows the power of

[Joseph Hammann @hammannj3]

@MichaelaHenric1 @michellemosier Agreed! It is very interesting how much we think about how much patriarchy conquered society and then we have women like Deborah to break those norms and stand out from the rest.

[Joseph Hammann @hammannj3]

@SchoffSydney @michellemosier I couldn't agree more with your first statement! As the only female judge, it definitely showed how there was a large authority shift, especially through connections with God, breaking usual gender norms in the process.

[Joseph Hammann @hammannj3]

@michellemosier #drmtheo111 #qotw10

[Joseph Hammann @hammannj3]

@michellemosier I would say either Deborah or Jael. With Deborah, she was as much a prophet as she was a judge, as a warrior woman and how she was seen as "God's counterpart". With Jael, it is interesting how ruthless yet powerful she was, a complete change on how society saw women at the time.

[Joseph Hammann @hammannj3]

@giarraputomatt7 @michellemosier I strongly agree with that. It is also interesting how God was previously turned away from but still never let go of Ruth & Naomi, since God would never leave us. Sometimes through these actions, people can have extraordinary results.
