Exodus 15

 


Miriam the prophet.

Here is another example in scripture of God using women in leadership. Though we don't have any prophecies of Miriam handed down that doesn't mean that her messages were less important they were evidently not messages for us today. This doesn't diminish her work or her role as a messenger of God. Yes, when we see this and other examples written it does mean that we have to ask ourselves what Paul might have meant in the New Testament (if read out of cultural context) but what we see here is God uses women as he uses men to deliver His word to people.
