Number 3: Proverbs: Focus on the Wisdom of Women I Handmaidens, Harems, Heroines I Lynne Wilson
What can Proverbs and Ecclesiastes teach us about the women of the Bible—and why does recognizing their voices, wisdom, strength, and influence matter?In this episode of Women in the Old Testament, Lynne Hilton Wilson explores the books of Proverbs and Ecclesiastes, uncovering the many ways women appear throughout these fascinating books of wisdom literature. From Woman Wisdom and the warnings surrounding the “strange woman” to the powerful mother who counsels King Lemuel and the remarkable woman of valor in Proverbs 31, women are woven throughout the teachings and poetry of these ancient texts.Lynne invites us to look more carefully at the women in Scripture—not simply as background characters, but as teachers, mothers, leaders, examples, symbols of wisdom, and people whose experiences help us better understand the biblical world. Proverbs even personifies wisdom itself as a woman, while the closing poem celebrates a woman whose strength, intelligence, industry, compassion, and faithfulness are worthy of praise.Why are women sometimes overlooked when we read the Bible? What happens when we slow down and intentionally look for them? And what can these ancient women teach both women and men today?Join Lynne Hilton Wilson as she helps us rediscover the women of Proverbs and Ecclesiastes and reminds us why women's stories belong at the center of our study of Scripture.#LynneHiltonWilson #WomenInTheBible #OldTestament #Proverbs #Ecclesiastes #BibleStudy #WomenOfTheBible #Scripture #Proverbs31 #WomanOfValor

Number 4: Isaiah 13-35 A Prophet Whom Jesus Loved | Handmaidens, Harems, Heroines I Lynne Hilton Wilson
In this episode of Handmaidens, Harems, and Heroines, biblical scholar Lynne Hilton Wilson explores Isaiah chapters 13–35, a powerful collection of prophecies filled with warnings, judgment, hope, destruction, and visions of the future.Isaiah is one of the Bible’s most influential and frequently quoted prophets, and these chapters demonstrate why his words have echoed through scripture for centuries. Lynne examines Isaiah’s prophecies concerning great cities and nations, including Babylon and Tyre, while also exploring the vivid imagery Isaiah uses to describe destruction, captivity, and the ultimate triumph of God.What do these chapters teach us about ravished wives, female slaves, and the daughters of Tarshish? What was life like for women caught in the devastating consequences of ancient warfare and conquest? Lynne brings attention to the women who appear—sometimes only briefly—in Isaiah’s prophecies and helps us better understand their experiences within the ancient world.But Isaiah’s vision reaches far beyond his own day. These chapters also contain dramatic images that look toward the apocalypse and the end times, when the wicked are judged, the world is transformed, and God’s salvation is revealed. From the fall of Babylon to the eventual redemption of Zion, Isaiah’s message combines sobering warnings with some of scripture’s most beautiful promises of hope.Join Lynne Hilton Wilson as she continues her journey through the Old Testament and uncovers the women, history, symbolism, and powerful prophetic messages found in Isaiah 13–35. Discover why Isaiah remains one of the most important voices in scripture—and why his ancient prophecies still speak so powerfully to our world today.#Isaiah #OldTestament #BibleStudy #WomenInTheBible #LynneHiltonWilson #HandmaidensHaremsHeroines #Babylon #Tyre #EndTimes #Apocalypse #ScriptureStudy

Number 5: Isaiah 1-12 Shakespeare of the Old Testament | Handmaidens, Harems, Heroines I Lynne Hilton Wilson
Join Lynne Hilton Wilson for another fascinating episode of Women in the Old Testament as she explores Isaiah chapters 1–12, some of the most beautiful, powerful, and influential passages in all of scripture.Often called the “Shakespeare of the Old Testament,” Isaiah is a master of language, poetry, imagery, and prophecy. His words move from warnings and judgments to soaring visions of hope, redemption, peace, and the coming of the Messiah. In these chapters, Isaiah paints unforgettable pictures of the Lord's mission and the future restoration of Israel.Lynne explores these remarkable chapters with special attention to the connections between Isaiah and the Book of Mormon. No other ancient record helps illuminate Isaiah quite like the Book of Mormon, where Isaiah's prophecies are quoted, explained, and applied by prophets who testify of Jesus Christ. From Nephi's powerful teachings to later Book of Mormon prophets, these scriptures help us see why Isaiah's words were so important—and why they continue to speak to disciples of Christ today.Together, we'll examine Isaiah's extraordinary prophecies of the Messiah, including the promised Immanuel, the divine Child who would be called Wonderful, Counselor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace, and the prophetic vision of a world transformed by the reign of Jesus Christ.What do these ancient prophecies teach us about the Savior? Why did Book of Mormon prophets treasure and repeatedly quote Isaiah? And how can understanding Isaiah's poetic language help us better recognize the message of Christ woven throughout the Old Testament?Join Lynne Hilton Wilson as we begin an unforgettable journey through the words of Isaiah—the Shakespeare of the Old Testament—and discover the beauty, power, and testimony of Jesus Christ found in Isaiah chapters 1–12.#WomenInTheOldTestament #LynneHiltonWilson #Isaiah #BookOfMormon #JesusChrist #OldTestament #Messiah #ScriptureStudy #IsaiahProphecies
