Today's new post is another female shepherd.
There WERE some female shepherds in ancient Israel.
Female Shepherd with Baby Jesus
(new drawing)
Baby Jesus was first visited by shepherds who had been out at night watching over their flocks. There WERE female shepherds in ancient Israel. I recently learned that fact. The baby Jesus is wrapped in swaddling clothes... which were strips of fabric on the arms and legs... thought to help the legs and arms grow straight.
NOTE: This is the second female shepherd I have drawn this year. The older drawing is posted below. These drawings are available in printable form by clicking on the Holidays button and scrolling down to the bottom of the Christmas section.
