In the words of ancient Israel and early Christianity, political and religious laws limited women's options. Bur some women created options by participating in adultery, prostitution, and other sexual crimes, thus resulting in a kind of independence not available to other women. These actions subverted the social system, leading to punishment for some women and power for others.
