Keturah-
2nd wife of Abraham- gave him 6 sons: Zimran, Jokshan, Median, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah. Abraham sent them away to the East away from Isaac. They became founders of the 6 Arabian tribes. This made it clear that Isaac IS the ONLY son of Abraham to be the legitimate heir. Midianites- are the ones who took Joseph up out of a cistern and took him to Egypt.

Leah: Jacob/Israel's 1st wife whose sons were Reuben, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Zebulun which made up 6 of the 12 tribes of Israel.
 She also had a daughter w/Jacob/Israel named Dinah. Note: Mary (mother of Jesus) was descended from the tribe of Judah (which was the tribe appointed as kings) and she was also cousin to Elizabeth the mother of John the Baptist who was from the tribe of Levi (which was the tribe appointed as priests) making Jesus High Priest & King of kings!

Naphtali -was one of the twelve sons of Jacob. His mother was Bilhah, who was a servant to Rachel, who was Jacob's wife. Bilhah also gave birth to Jacob's son Dan. Naphtali was the founder of one of the 12 Tribes of Israel. A region in northern Israel was given his name, near the Sea of Galilee. When Jacob blesses his sons in Genesis 49, he describes Naphtali as a deer that has been set free. (Genesis 49:21).

Phoebe-
Paul writes in his letter Romans; "I commend to you Phoebe our sister, who is also a minister of the church at Cenchreae, that you may receive her in the Lord in a manner worthy of the holy ones, and help her in whatever she may need from you, for she has been a benefactor to many and to me as well." (Romans 16:1-2). Phoebe offers evidence that women played important roles in the early Christian church. It is believed by many scholars that she delivered Paul's letter to Rome.
