Peninnah

Peninnah is a biblical character recognized as the co-wife of Elkanah and the mother of his children. She is often portrayed in a negative light due to her taunting of Hannah, Elkanah's beloved wife, who was unable to conceive. Peninnah's actions serve as a reflection of the societal pressures and emotional turmoil faced by women in polygamous relationships, particularly regarding the expectations of motherhood and fertility.
