It's impressive to see how women presented in the Bible echo many of the traits of women today.
Human nature remains very much the same, as millenniums come and go.
As long as history continues, women remain women. Looking into the mirror of scripture, today's women can compare themselves to their ancient counterparts. For example, some unattractive women, like the Leah of old, still desperately try to hold on to the men they love. Others who are beautiful like Rachel, Leah's sister, still feel that life owes them romance and happiness. This is not because of how much they necessarily contribute to society, but simply because of their physical beauty.
