  The Bible says, call all christian women as daughters of Sarah

  Ruth, Queen Esther, & the brave prostitute who hid the hebrew spies. They all seem very brave to me. Ruth was very filial & brave to work alone as a single woman to feed her mother in law. You know a woman can get raped or molested like that. Queen Esther braved the death sentence to save the entire nation of Jews. I can't remember the name of the prostitute who hid the hebrew spies(mental block) but she was brave woman also, thereby saving her family from death. Kudos to all the other brave women in the bible!

  That is not true. Eve might be the first woman but doesn't mean God did not create other women.
  
  or else where did Cain get his bride??

  The brave prostitude you're referring to should be Rahab.
  
  It has proven in OT that God uses people other than Isrealites for his purpose.

  The prostitute whom Jesus forgives and saved from the people who wanted to stone her. he said "let those who have no sin, cast the first stone"
  
  and even if he could have stoned her, because he is sinless, he didn't.
  
  because she reminds me that Jesus is so loving and gracious.
