Question: I'm creating a Bible study on the Proverbs 31. I have a list of 19 adjectives that describe a "woman of noble character." I'm trying to find a biblical example of each word. Any ideas? Here's the list:
- Trustworthy
- Good-natured
- Hard-working
- Domestic
- Committed
- Caring
- Financially Astute
- Strong
- Wise
- Decisive
- Well-Kept
- Supportive
- Social/Influential
- Honorable
- Joyful
- Kind/Compassionate
- Responsible
- Praiseworthy
- God-fearing
My Reply:
Wow dude, you've got a lot of words there! I'm not sure if you're looking for NT or OT references, and there are tons for these words. But here are some that I thought might help, if not spark some other references for you:
- Trustworthy = Daniel 6:4
- Good-natured =
- Hard-working = Genesis 29:20
- Domestic =
- Committed = Genesis 29:28
- Caring = John 15:13-17
- Financially Astute =
- Strong = Judges 6 (Gideon)
- Wise = 1 Corinthians 1 & 2 (God's wisdom vs. world's wisdom)
- Decisive = Daniel 1:8
- Well-kept =
- Supportive = Ruth 1:16-18 (also fits w/ committed)
- Social / Influential = 1 Cor. 1:26 / Gen. 19
- Honorable = 2 Kings 5:1
- Joyful = Luke 1:64
- Kind / Compassionate = 1 Kings 3:26 / Matt. 9:36
- Responsible = Genesis 39:8
- Praiseworthy = 1 Samuel 25 (Abigail)
- God-fearing = Acts 10, Daniel 1:8
