Proverbs 31:10-31? How does this fit in?
Discussion
Laboring within the home is not the same as working for money.
She is working for money. She is a garment maker while also laboring in the home.
Proverbs 31:24: She makes linen garments and sells them;
she delivers sashes to the merchant.
She labors for the home, not for herself.
Ok. I think I’m following. You are saying it is ok for a woman to have work or a career that earns money, if the mindset is that the money will be for the home and not for herself.
And in those passages, the woman worked from the home. She didn't go to an employer's location, away from her family.
She is delivering sashes to the merchant, but idk interesting thought. I don’t think this passage is specific to her earning money from home, but it would be hard to do the other things without mostly being at home. Unless “she rises while it is still night and her lamp doesn’t go out at night”😉
