Great Women of the Bible
Clarence Edward Macartney
This book is a kind of sequel to Sermons on Old Testament Heroes (1935) and The Greatest Men of the Bible (1941). In the Foreword, Macartney notes that he asked his congregation to vote on the women who should be included. “Ruth stood first in the list, and Eve last”; he also “added several women who did not receive a place in the first ten” (p. 5).

Sermons on Old Testament Heroes
Clarence Edward Macartney
In the Foreword, Macartney writes that sermons in this collection “were preached at morning and evening services in the First Presbyterian Church of Pittsburgh, and are recorded here in the general form in which they were preached” (p. 6). Not all of his subjects, he writes, “are heroes, in the popular sense of the word; but all are conspicuous personalities, and all proclaim and illustrate timeless lessons of morality and life” (p. 5).
