Davids sees 'holy women approved by God' as merely cultural approval, which contradicts the text

Davids interprets 'holy women approved by God' as women who fit 'the virtues of their culture.' Mike argues 'holy' in the Bible is never used as a subjective cultural term -- it always means actual holiness. There's an internal contradiction: 'considered holy women' (called cultural) vs 'approved by God' (divine approval). These cannot both be merely cultural.
