In this book I tell the story of three women, women found in the Old Testament, women who are not known by very many Catholics or Protestants today.
Who might these women be?
Esther the Queen who saved Israel from total destruction.
Judith, the military genius.
Ruth, the great grandmother of King David, a woman listed in the line of Jesus Christ our Savior.
The Old Testament was a man’s world.
Here, in Holy Scripture, there are tucked away these three short books, books named after…imagine this…women! These women are not ordinary types at all. They are heroines that demand our attentive study and thought. These are amazing women, women who have unusual stories to tell. And their accounts have relevance, not just to women, but to us men too! Their lives, their devotion to God and the impact they had on history are…Incredible!
