==Scriptures Regarding Women==

::13 She obtains wool and flax,and she is pleased to work with her hands.

==Women in Ministry==
:The role of women in Ministry has historically been a topic of discussion and debate in Christianity. The views can range from "Extreme Egalitarian" which states that there is no role or function in the life of the church from which a woman is to be excluded to "Extreme Complementarian" which limits the role of women to complete subordination with no authority in any aspect of church ministry.
