Moreover, Deborah was'a prophetess regarded with especial favor by the Lord. It was Hannah who dedicated Samuel to God, a deed which made her prominent among the mothers of Israel, and Ruth and Esther have given their names to books of the Bible.Women were chosen by Christ to be His friends and were instructed in religion as carefully as were the men.
