Bible in 90, Day 2: They're very good!



Day 2: Genesis 17-28

Women.

I noticed in our passage for today (specifically chapters 20-21) that God has a keen interest in protecting women.  If you remember yesterday, and I hope you do, we saw that after each part of creation God declared everything good.  It wasn't until He had created Eve that He declared everything very good.

And I concur.

Men are supposed to watch over the women in their lives.  It is part of our duty as men to protect, provide for, and lead women, especially those in our own households.  And no, I'm not a chauvinist...

I'm biblical.

In part of our story today, our hero, Abraham, fails miserably at this task... twice.
