Few scriptures are more eloquent in describing the Lord’s delight in the purity and chastity of women. The Lord does not want the daughters of Israel to be “worldly.” There is no reason for them to have a detailed knowledge of all the sordid acts of depravity which cover the earth. If the women are offended by an off color joke, an inappropriate video, or carnal music, it is a good thing in the eyes of the Lord. It shows that their feelings are exceedingly tender and chaste and delicate.
The book of Proverbs talks about two types of women, the virtuous and the foolish. Of the former it says:
’A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband…
Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.
The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her…
She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy…
She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.
She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.
Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her. (Proverbs 12:4; 31:10-11,20,26-28).
Of the foolish women it says:
’As a jewel of gold in a swine’s snout, so is a fair woman which is without discretion…
It is better to dwell in the corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman in a wide house.’ (Proverbs 11:22; 21:9)
