Proverbs 31- The Virtuous Woman | Bible Podcast, David Alley, Peace Christian Church

Proverbs 31 read by David Alley, followed by comments and prayer. In Proverbs 31 we come to the last and possibly the most interesting chapter in the book of Proverbs. We also meet Lemuel, a wise man who was taught by his unnamed mother. He was the king of Massa, possibly an Arabian place, but in any case we have the wisdom here of a woman passed down through her son. And here we meet the woman of virtue. We quickly realise that the standard of an ideal wife is not only far beyond possible for the average woman, but for any person. It is a standard to which all people should strive. After an entire book of warnings about avoiding the wayward woman, and the adulterous woman, this last chapter is wonderful because it shows us that the best things in life also come in female form too. Ultimately the woman described here is the wife of Christ, and speaks for all of us. This video covers the many wonderful women we have in our families and churches, and all that God has called us to be.
