Episode: Ingrid Faro talks with Matt Bates about overlooked, less-known, vilified, and misunderstood women in the Old Testament. Like … Jehosheba (did you know about her?). She argues that the story of women in the Old Testament–and in particular their role at key junctures in that story–is good for men and women.
