In Holy Writ we meet several instances when women are honored with this title: Mary, the sister of Moses (Exodus 15); Debbora, who meted out justice to the Tribes of Israel (Judges 4); Holda, the contemporary of King Josias (4Kings 22); and in the New Testament, Anna, the daughter of Phanuel (Luke 2). God is free to allot His gifts as He chooses.
