The [shooting spree](http://time.com/113948/elliot-rodger-ucsb-santa-barbara/) in Santa Barbara, Calif. on Friday–and suspect Elliot Rodger’s manifesto against women that appears to have been behind it–prompted an [online conversation](http://time.com/114043/yesallwomen-hashtag-santa-barbara-shooting/) critiquing the beliefs society instills in men about women.

But alongside the #YesAllWomen hashtag cropped up another one–#YesAllBiblicalWomen–as people began imagining the way the women of the Bible would contribute to the #YesAllWomen conversation if they could speak today.

Feminist Jewish and Christian theology is a relatively new development in each faith’s history, and many of the women in the Bible, as these tweets suggest, experienced consequences of male entitlement. Here’s a selection of the #YesAllBiblicalWomen tweets, each sharing a Biblical woman’s story, from [@AllBibleWomen](https://twitter.com/AllBibleWomen) and others:

Sarah: because my husband thought pimping me out was better than other men killing him to take me. [#YesAllBiblicalWomen](https://twitter.com/hashtag/YesAllBiblicalWomen?src=hash&ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw)

Bathsheba: Because I can’t bathe without being leered at. [#YesAllWomen](https://twitter.com/hashtag/YesAllWomen?src=hash&ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw) [#YesAllBiblicalWomen](https://twitter.com/hashtag/YesAllBiblicalWomen?src=hash&ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw)
