Still, Huldah was a prophetess sought by the king for direction from God — that's genuinely significant for our study.

Even without the egalitarian exaggerations, Huldah was a prophetess sought by the king for direction from God.

God clearly calls and uses women prophets to speak to kings and direct nations.
