**Five women. One family tree. A story Scripture never wanted you to skip.**
Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, Bathsheba, and Mary weren't minor characters. In _The Mothers of Jesus_, each woman steps out of Matthew's genealogy and into sharp focus, revealing how God has always worked through the faith, courage, and wisdom of women to carry the story of Scripture forward.
More than a study of five remarkable women, this book uncovers a surprising thread that runs from Genesis to the Gospels. Each woman's story serves as an intentional theological signpost, shaping our understanding of Jesus himself. By tracing the biblical theme of _phronimos_ wisdom, the wisdom Jesus commended when he told his disciples to be "wise as serpents and innocent as doves," readers discover how these women repeatedly outwitted the serpent-like figures in their stories. Where Eve encountered the crafty (_phronimos_) serpent and fell to deception, Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, Bathsheba, and ultimately Mary used faithful wisdom to overcome evil on its own ground, advancing God's redemptive plan one generation at a time.
With rich biblical insight, accessible historical context, and questions designed for honest personal reflection, this book gives women's Bible study groups exactly what they need: depth without jargon, truth that connects, and stories worth sitting with.
Whether you're a longtime Bible student or just beginning to explore Scripture, _The Mothers of Jesus_ will change the way you read the Old Testament, the genealogy of Jesus, and your own place in God's story.
Ideal for women's Bible studies, small groups, and personal devotion.
