Thematic Bible: Spinning


Thematic Bible



All the skilled and talented women spun thread with their hands, and brought what they had spun, blue and purple and scarlet fabric and fine linen.


She stretches out her hands to the distaff,
And her hands hold the spindle [as she spins wool into thread for clothing].


She seeks out wool and flax and works with willing hands [to develop it]. She is like the merchant ships loaded with foodstuffs; she brings her household's food from a far [country].
