Zohara Hieronimus on the seven female prophets of Israel



Kabbalistic Teachings of the Female Prophet: The Seven Holy Women of Ancient Israel is the new book
from local author and broadcaster Zohara Meyerhoff Hieronimus. Zoh’s
new book draws the connections between the seven female prophets who are Sarah, Miriam, Devorah, Chanah, AvIgail, ChUldah, and Ester—and the seven lower sefirat on the Kabbalistic tree of life, the days of the week, the human body, Jewish rituals and holidays, and the seven species of Israel, which are wheat, barley, grapes, date or date honey, figs, pomegranate and olives. In her
book, she argues that an integration of all of these elements “shows us a way of living and acting in the world in any given situation in a way most harmoniums to the root nature of the creator in whose image we are made.”
