Biblical Value of a Woman

Although many people have blamed religion for the oppression of women, the Bible has always placed an amazingly high value on women’s worth. From the very beginning, Scriptures say that both men and women were created in the image of God. Throughout both the Old and New Testaments the Bible directs men to honor women and treat them well. Perhaps the most fascinating demonstration of a woman’s worth is found in the life of Jesus who often interacted with women in ways that showed that they were ever bit as important as men. This message is essential for both Christian men and Christian women in a culture that consistently undervalues, underpays, and objectifies women.
