Job's Daughters

[Hassan]

Also, as I recall, the Bible didn't say there were no other men around. After the destruction Lot's daughters came to believe that they were the last human beings alive.

As I recall, but it's been a while since I read the Bible.

Oh dang you are correct. I thought of that just before you posted... I get the two mixed up sometimes...

It happens. For the life of me though I can't remember anything important about Job's Daughters or guess why the group is named after them (unless, of course, it's not after the Biblical Job).

I guess it depends on if you are talking about Job's daughters who were killed, or the ones who were born to him after God and Satan got done with him.

From Wikipedia:

[quote]Mother Mick was fond of the Book of Job, and took the name of the organization as a reference to the three daughters of Job. The Book of Job, 42nd chapter, 15th verse says, "In all the land were no women found so fair as the Daughters of Job, and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren".[/quote]
