Genesis Chapter 16: God Meets with a Woman Named Hagar
from The Bible Message without Patriarchy · host Awake Deborah
In this podcast episode, we read Genesis chapter 16 from the New International Version of the Bible. This passage contradicts a number of patriarchal assumptions about the manner in which God relates to women. Unfortunately, its message has been badly obscured by prejudiced translation and commentary. In our oldest available manuscripts, we see that a woman names God, and that God meets with her in her place of distress.
