Famous Mothers in the Bible - #3
Famous Mothers of the Bible - Question 3 of 6
You may remember that Cain killed his brother Able. But, do you remember who their mother was ?
Hannah
Sapphira
Eve
Hannah was a godly woman that was childless into her old age. She was persecuted and misunderstood. A priest even thought she was drunk when she was praying. She continued her prayers and, finally, God allowed her to give birth. She was so grateful that she dedicated that child to the Lord and took him to the temple as soon as he was weaned. Hannah was the mother of the prophet Samuel. You can read about her in the book of 1 Samuel.
The Bible doesn't say whether she had children or not. It does say that she and her husband came to a bad end because they lied. You can read about her and her husband Ananias in the book of Acts. Chapter 5 Verses 1 through 11.
Yes, poor woman. She was the first woman and the mother of all the living but her son committed the first murder. Able was dead and Cain was sentenced to wander the world, but fortunately she and Adam had other children.
You are doing great! Now go on to
question four.
