Many of the women who rise to prominence in the Hebrew Bible do so in their capacity as mothers: Eve (“the mother of all living”), Sarah, Rebekah, Rachel, Samson's mother, and Hannah. The phrase “mother in Israel” is used metaphorically to describe a woman (Judg 5:7) or a city (2 Sam 20:19, grammatically feminine) that deserves special honor. The legal material concerns itself with the respect due to mothers as well as fathers (Exod 20:12; Lev 19:3). The wisdom tradition views mothers along with fathers as teachers (Prov 1:8).

In these texts, mothers are a source of authority, security, and comfort.
