Was The Proverbs 31 Woman A Career Gal?

I just got into a discussion with someone about whether or not Proverbs 31 describes a career woman. I don't think the Bible contradicts itself and I do not believe that is what God is trying to say in Proverbs 31.

I just came across a blog called Was the Proverbs 31 Woman A Career Gal by Voddie Baucham that makes a good argument for why that is not what God intended. Mr. Baucham's theology is very different from mine, but I like they way he explains his thoughts on that matter and wanted to share.

I wonder when the "career" concept was invented. Back in the day - even when I was a kid in rural Norway - nobody seemed to talk about "careers".

All there was was "work". Wearisome, dangerous and/or tedious. Not for luxuries, but to feed the family thru the winter.
