What oppression? Contrary to common belief, Judaism is unique in honoring it's women. Beginning in Genesis, Sarah was honored as a prophet as well as being the mother of Judaism. In Exodus, Mirriam was honored as a prophetess as well as being a praise and worship leader. Devorah of Judges was a civic leader as well as an advisor to generals and her song of praise to God is recorded in Judges. Hannah is recorded as a woman of faith who gave birth to Samuel, the great prophet of The Bible. She was also a cosseted and much loved woman who was wealthy. Judaism has long honored it's women and done it's best to protect them and provide for them even in times of great hardship. Women are recorded as prophetesses, heads of state, advisors to rulers, and wives and mothers all in the same lifetime. For a complete view of what a woman is, read Proverbs 31. This is a compendium of what Judaism thinks of it's women.
