~ Their Great Influence ~

 

Throughout the Bible we find that mothers are greatly honored. Mothers have tremendous influence upon the next generation.

 

The phrase “And his mother was…” appears 20 times in 2 Kings and 2 Chronicles. This phrase underlines the importance attached to the mothers of kings. Often the queen-mother is more honored than the queen-wife.

 

The term "mother" or "mothers" appears in the Bible about 300 times.

 

The phrase "mother-in-law" appears 11 times and it is always in reference to Naomi’s, mother-in-law Ruth.

 

A mother's influence is also stressed in Ezekiel 16:44 where we read the phrase, “As is the mother, so is her daughter.” Scripture shows that the love of children was deep in the hearts of Hebrew women, and the mother was regarded with the deepest reverence.
