Daughters of Jerusalem
The title has many meanings. Daughter was a term used to describe the various quadrants of the city of Jerusalem. Luke may be calling out to Jerusalem as a city or to all the women who have followed the ancient religion of the Jews. It is both a political and an endearing term.

Foreword
During the last two decades much literature has appeared on the role of women in the Bible. Within the New Testament much of this has focused on the Pauline texts with attempts to correlate two diverse strands of thoughtthat of women freely participating in a variety of early church ministries (Rom. 16:17; 1 Cor. 11:116; Phil. 4:23) and that of restrictions placed upon women (1 Cor. 14:3435; 1 Tim. 2:1112). Jesus' relation to and teaching about women has been cited in support of the new freedom and worth for women.
Only in a few instances has the larger interpretive issue of the standpoint of the Gospelswritten after Paul's lettersemerged for careful scrutiny. When the Pauline restrictive texts are assigned to a post-Pauline authorship and date, it becomes all the more crucial to pay adequate attention to the standpoint of the Gospels on this matter. This must be done in order to arrive at a proper assessment
