Usage: The name Susanna is used in the New Testament to refer to a woman who was a follower of Jesus Christ. She is noted for her role in supporting Jesus and His disciples through her own means. Cultural and Historical Background: In the first-century Jewish context, women like Susanna who followed Jesus were often seen as breaking societal norms. Women were typically expected to maintain traditional roles within the household, but Susanna, along with other women, chose to support Jesus' ministry, indicating a significant level of commitment and faith. This support was not only spiritual but also material, as these women provided for Jesus and His disciples out of their own resources.
