Abstract
Abigail of Maon, the Medium of Endor, the Wise Woman of Tekoa, and the Wise Woman of Abel: at personal risk, all dared to confront power. In part 1 of this article contemporary scholars comment on their actions. Part 2, to be published in our next issue (BTB 51/2—May, 2021), discusses their appearance in the Aramaic Bible, the Targum Jonathan; and in the writings of both the ancient Rabbis and the Church Fathers.

The journal began publication in 1971. It has been distinguished for its early and continuing publication of articles using the social sciences in addition to other critical methods for interpreting the Bible for contemporary readers, teachers, and preachers across cultural and denominational lines.
