The Position of Women in Religious Scripture

The status of women in religious scriptures reduces women in society. When God makes people and builds his partners, women make sense. Since men are first created and then women of ribs are made, the gender of women in religious poetry is discriminated. This is reflected in the books of the Old Testament and the New Testament, the teachings of Jesus Christ and the Quran. First of all, the Old Testament describes a woman as a corrupt male. Next, even though the New Testament is not, Jesus' teachings show more gender equality.

The status of women in Buddhism is unique. The Buddha gave women full freedom to participate in religious life. The Buddha was the first religious teacher to give this religious freedom to women. In front of the Buddha, the woman's duty is limited to the kitchen, and women are not allowed to enter any temple or read a religious scripture. During the Buddha period, the status of women in society was very low. When he gave this woman this freedom, the Buddha was criticized by the public. His move to enable women to enter a sacred order was extremely radical in the times. But the Buddha showed that women have the same ability as men who allow them to prove themselves and they also acquire the highest status of religious lifestyle by acquiring Arahantahood. All women in the world must show their true religious way of life and thank the Buddha who provided such freedom for the first time in the world history.

Historically, colonial North American and American women were deeply influenced by their religious tradition. World religions such as Judaism, Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism, and Islam are based on the tradition of depicting female subordinates to men, but women are the majority of most religious groups in the United States. Some Americans use the Bible to preserve the dignity and equality of women while using religious arguments to limit women's legal, political and economic rights. Women's religious beliefs shape every aspect of life, such as how to make their own time, sexual and physical attitudes, understanding of pain. Unlike earlier American Catholic ladies, they call the highest religious beliefs as sister relations and most white colonial women think they will serve their main religious occupation to their families I will.

However, all religious scriptures can be read in various ways, and women often use the Bible to protect their dignity and humanity. For example, when reading the Bible, Jews and Christian women were inspired by the story of the Israelites who saved the Israelites from destruction and the story of the female prophet Deborah. In "Father's promise" (1859), Phoebe Palmer (1807-1874), a comprehensive and influential defense of the female preaching as the founder of the Eucharist Movement, came from the American citizen, Miriam, Halda, Anna, Magdala It reminds me.
