Feminist Biblical Interpretation
$96.99The German edition of Feminist Biblical Interpretation received high acclaim and widespread positive reviews in Europe, leading to the publication of a second edition within only five months! As the only one-volume feminist commentary that addresses every book of the Bible — including the Jewish, Catholic, and Protestant canons, plus several “noncanonical” writings — it is considered to be a classic compendium of feminist exegesis. This groundbreaking reference tool for contextual biblical interpretation is now available in English for the first time. As a decidedly feminist project, this volume presents woman-centered exegetical commentary on the Bible, including books that are relatively uncharted territory for feminist theology. The contributors include over sixty female scholars, mostly from German-speaking Europe and also some from North and Central America and Asia.
