Eshet Chayil Pt 2: Introduction

The Honor that Hamelech Shlomo gave to huis mother was huge. He made sure that he stated how dedicated and loving she was and that her advice carried him through life. Wow what a blessing. But there are other ideas as to what he was talking about. Some state that is was about the Sabbath Queen. Or about the body and Soul. I prefer to believe it was about woman. Not just any woman but the woman who can embody the desire to seek holiness in her soul.
It also acknowledges his role as a son to accept his responsibility in hororing his mother. Now his mother prayed for him. Not to beome King but to become wise student. Although when you read about her she seemed to speak harsh and to the point. Sometimes soft speech is needed adn sometime words that seem harsh and to the point are needed.
But her prayers and focus were on a ture spiritual desire.This is why he became King. This is why he was chosen for the task.
Always rmembr that...Behind every successful man is an encouraging woman. The first woman that affects a mans life is his mother.Sacrifice, care and dedication became a part of his being because of his mother and it was not a walk in the park for her.
So the objective is to remember we are the ones who are creating either leaders or followers. Men or just boys. Women or just girls. CHildren need to be nurtured and cared for but do you want them to stay that way and not become independent strong people who will raise up as the next generation?
