Editorial Review:

Product Description:
A professor of Hebrew Bible at the Divinity School at the University of Chicago, Frymer-Kensky (In the Wake of the Goddesses: Women, Culture and the Biblical Transformation of Pagan Myth) investigates biblical stories about women to ascertain why "a clearly androcentric text from a patriarchal society" has "so many stories that revolve around women." Deliberately omitting a few prominent women (e.g., Eve and Miriam), Frymer-Kensky focuses on four groups of women: the victors, the victims, the virgins, and those with voice.

Customer Reviews

Excellent 5 out of 5 stars
What role a woman should play in Biblical studies?
Did Jewish women contribute anything to the Torah and Talmud?
If so, then, why their views are not always welcome?
Is there a principle difference between a man rabbi and a woman rabbi?
These questions were addressed in this book.
Worth every penny.
