WIDOWS IN THE BIBLE!

whose name was Tamar." 

7.  "And Er, Judah's firstborn, was wicked 

in the sight of the LORD; and the LORD 

slew him." 

14.  "And she put her widow's garments

 off from her, and covered her with a vail, 

and wrapped herself, and sat in an open 

place, which is by the way to Timnath...

Genesis 38:6, 7, 14

13.  "And king Solomon sent and fetched Hiram

 out of Tyre."

14.  "He was a widow's son of the tribe of Naphtali, 

and his father was a man of Tyre, a worker in brass:

 and he was filled with wisdom, and understanding, 

and cunning to work all works in brass. And he came

 to king Solomon, and wrought all his work.

1.  "Now there cried a certain woman of the 

wives of the sons of the prophets unto Elisha, 

saying, Thy servant my husband is dead; and 

thou knowest that thy servant did fear the 

LORD: and the creditor is come to take unto 

him my two sons to be bondmen." 

2.  "And Elisha said unto her, What shall 

I do for thee? tell me, what hast thou in 

the house? And she said, Thine handmaid 

hath not any thing in the house, save a pot 

of oil." 

6.  "And it came to pass, when the vessels 

were full, that she said unto her son, Bring 

me yet a vessel. And he said unto her, There

 is not a vessel more. And the oil stayed." 

7.  "Then she came and told the man of God.

 And he said, Go, sell the oil, and pay thy debt, 

and live thou and thy children of the rest."

and the name of his wife Naomi, and the

Ephrathites of Bethlehemjudah. And they 

came into the country of Moab, and 

continued there."

3.  "And Elimelech Naomi's husband died;  

and she was left, and her two sons.

4.  "And they took them wives of the women 

of Moab; the name of the one was Orpah,

 and the name of the other Ruth: and they 

dwelled there about ten years." 

5.  "And Mahlon and Chilion died also both 

of them; and the woman was left of her

 two sons and her husband."

16.  "And Ruth said, Intreat me not to 

leave thee, or to return from following

 after thee: for whither thou goest, I will

 go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge:

 thy people shall be my people, and thy 

God my God:"

Ruth 1:2, 3, 5, 16
