Are Women Inferior to Men in the Bible

Are Women Inferior to Men in the Bible

Are women inferior to men? Were they created as an afterthought, a secondary human being, designed to live in the shadow of men?

The common perception is that in earlier history, in primitive times, that was indeed the attitude – that men were the center of the universe and women were simply their accessories. Hence, totally inferior. And even more specifically, if you ask anyone about the biblical and religious views of male vs. female, the response is that male hierarchy controlled the world and women were second class citizens.

This common perception continues that in time women slowly began to claim and finally gain some rights (i’ts still arguable when they have equal rights or almost equal). In the last century, the suffrage and feminist movements are seen as being the modern advances of women finally gaining recognition and equal stature to men.

But is this true? Are women indeed inferior to men in the Bible?

Please join Rabbi Simon Jacobson as he debunks these common misperceptions and you will be surprised to learn that it is quite the contrary! When we actually go back to the Bible itself, we find that women are totally equal to men – each having their own unique and superior qualities, complementing each other and working hand in hand. It is in fact the modern world that can learn much from that fundamental equality — how the powerful spiritual roles of the feminine and the masculine can and must join together to create a moral and spiritual revolution in our world. A paradigm shift in the way we look at and experience ourselves and our relationships.
