In the old testament women arent looked at as bad, alot of them have power and are said to speak with god.
However in the new testament alot of the women are just plain.
The bible doesnt speak alot of women in the sense of her being able to be anything more than just a slave, a whore, or some average chick who knew Jesus. im sorry but IMO a womens take on God should have been just as important as some of the mens, why were there no female prophets? Alot of biblical scholars accept that Mary Magdeline was acually a whore who became a born again virgin, alot of the women spoke of were labeled as whores. Others were just women who Jesus healed. And then some were females who were impregnated by Jesus because they could not concieve. It doesnt really speak of any woman talking to god, or being important on that sort of level.
I guess basically what im saying is that women were never made prophets, alot were labled as whores, some spoke of were unmarried and pregnant, no one outside of the old testament really is a big deal in the sense of being important. If they are considered important its only for being pregnant, a whore, someone who was healed, or someone Jesus spoke to and made a believer out of.
