Summary "Notable Women of Olden Time" by Anonymous is a historical account likely written in the mid-19th century. The text explores the lives of significant women from biblical history, focusing on figures such as Sarah, Hagar, and Rebekah, illustrating their influence and roles within the narratives of their time. The book serves as a reflection on the experiences and virtues of these women, providing moral lessons grounded in their stories. The opening of the work introduces the narrative style employed to recount the life of Sarah, the wife of Abraham. It begins by setting the historical context of Sarah's life and underscores her faith and loyalty alongside her husband as they navigate a divinely-ordained journey. The description delves into Sarah's devotion, challenges related to motherhood, and her enduring spirit in the face of trials, emphasizing the complexity of her character as a loving wife and mother. This rich portrayal lays the groundwork for further exploration of notable women in subsequent chapters, who too exhibit strength and moral fortitude in the face of adversity.
