PART
ONE
of the series "The
Women in the Bible."
The
Women of Genesis
In
this portion of the series we will study all of the women in the book of
Genesis. From Eve, the mother of all living, to Asenath, the heathen wife
of Joseph. In this study we will see the influence of the various women,
for good or for evil, as it is involved in the progressive revelation of the
will of God in the lives and circumstances He allows or brings about not only in the
various heathen nations and peoples, but on through to the calling out of His
Chosen People in Abraham.
The creation and the bringing forth of Eve from the side of
Adam will mark the beginning of this study and, of course, the beginning of the
human race. Then you will study the part they played in the plan of
God in His calling out of a people in Abraham and their eventual migration to
Egypt. Which of course was the prelude to the Children of Israel's
eventual captivity in that country and more stories of women involved in that
process. And then, lastly, the life and influence of Asenath the
wife of Joseph which will mark the terminal point of this first part of the
series on Women in the Bible.
You are required to read the entire book
of Genesis while completing this particular course in the series. You will
be asked in the Final Test if you have completed reading Genesis while completing the
Women of Genesis course. If you do not answer "Yes" then you will not
be able to pass the Final Test.
SCRIPTURES
QUOTED IN THIS STUDY: Student must look up EVERY scripture
referenced in the textbook for this
study in their King James Bible. That includes all of those scriptures
that are partially or wholly quoted in the textbook, including whole chapters
when they are given as a reference. While reading through the entire book
of Genesis, you can combine your lesson chapter reference requirement and your
entire book requirement into one. To accomplish this, you can time
your book of Genesis reading to correspond with the chapter references given in each
lesson. That then will fulfill the chapter reference reading requirement
and that chapter of the entire book reading requirement, both, with just one
reading. When a chapter is referenced in the textbook, read the
chapter, and then the lesson will give specific verse references which you are
to look up and read individually as they are given throughout the study. The reading
of an entire chapter reference does not fulfill the reading requirement for
individual verses or passages in that chapter that are to be read along with
specific sections of the study. Scripture reading
of chapters and individual references as well as a reading of the entire book of
Genesis are requirements for the course.
If you do not read the entire book of Genesis and look up every scripture referenced in the textbook then you will
fail the course.
ATTENDANCE/STUDY/TESTING
REQUIREMENTS
- STUDY:
Study
only one section of the textbook at a time looking up every

current section and have looked up the correct answers in
your textbook and/or the King James Bible, whichever is
appropriate, for every question answered incorrectly on the
test. This must be done for every test, pass or fail. Your attendance requirement for the
next section begins the day after you pass the test
for the current section and have carried out the correct
answer lookup procedure for all missed questions on the
current test.
