The highest sanctions of religion and patriotism blessed the fruitful woman, because children were necessary for the perpetuation of the tribe and its religion. It is significant that the mothers of the Hebrew race, Sarah, Rebekah, and Rachel, were by nature sterile; God s special intervention shows His particular favor to Israel. Fruitfulness was God s special blessing to His people (Exod 23:26; Deut 7:14; Ps 113:9). Metaphorically, Israel in her days of adversity, when her children were exiled, was barren, but in her restoration she will rejoice in many children (Isa 54:1; Gal 4:27). Jesus portrays the utter despair and terror of the destruction of Jerusalem when He speaks of a day when the barren will be called blessed (Luke 23:29). 46 Fill in the 2 nd column to show other women in the Bible who were barren and their first born child (3 rd column).
