DP #3: What Does the Inclusion of the four women tell us about Jesus' message and teachings?

These four women, all strong willed and extremely intelligent, tell us that Jesus will defy his expected role in society, as well as be remembered in history for centuries to come. The women mentioned in Jesus’ genealogy changed their future, as well as the future of their later generations. The women, whether ethically or not, took their unjust situations and greatly improved them. Jesus, like these strong, independent women, can be expected to be an independent, tough man who, motivated to improve grave situations and people lives, would change the world.
