Book Synopsis Preaching the Women of the Bible by : Lisa Wilson Davison
Download or read book Preaching the Women of the Bible written by Lisa Wilson Davison and published by Chalice Press. This book was released on 2006-06-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Studying the women of the Bible is a necessary and much-needed activity," says Lisa Wilson Davison. "It is the only way to right the wrongs of sexist interpretations of the Bible and the resulting oppression of women." Combining biblical exegesis with archaeological findings and the practice of midrash, Davison uncovers and brings to the forefront the roles that women have played in the development of faith. She shows us how much our foremothers have to teach us about living in relationship with God and one another. From the familiar-Mary and the mothers of Moses-to the relatively unknown-the daughter of Jephthah and Huldah, Preaching the Women of the Bible proclaims a more complete faith story and enriches our understanding. Davison focuses on ten women whose contributions have been overlooked or under represented. For each she provides an exegetical introduction to the text, historical and cultural context, insights for sermons, and a sample sermon.

Book Synopsis Women in Scripture by : Carol Meyers
Download or read book Women in Scripture written by Carol Meyers and published by HMH. This book was released on 2000-03-30 with total page 1017 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This splendid reference describes every woman in Jewish and Christian scripture . . . monumental” (Library Journal). In recent decades, many biblical scholars have studied the holy text with a new focus on gender. Women in Scripture is a groundbreaking work that provides Jews, Christians, or anyone fascinated by a body of literature that has exerted a singular influence on Western civilization a thorough look at every woman and group of women mentioned in the Bible, whether named or unnamed, well known or heretofore not known at all. They are remarkably varied—from prophets to prostitutes, military heroines to musicians, deacons to dancers, widows to wet nurses, rulers to slaves. There are familiar faces, such as Eve, Judith, and Mary, seen anew with the full benefit of the most up-to-date results of biblical scholarship. But the most innovative aspect of this book is the section devoted to the many females who in the scriptures do not even have names. Combining rigorous research with engaging prose, these articles on women in the Hebrew Bible, the Apocryphal/Deuterocanonical Books, and the New Testament will inform, delight, and challenge readers interested in the Bible, scholars and laypeople alike. Together, these collected histories create a volume that takes the study of women in the Bible to a new level.

Egalitarian - equal ministry opportunity for both genders (represented by Linda L. Belleville and Craig S. Keener) Complementarian - men and women fill distinctive ministry roles (represented by Craig L. Blomberg and Thomas R. Schreiner) This revised edition brings the exchange of ideas and perspectives into the traditional Counterpoints format.

The Counterpoints series presents a comparison and critique of scholarly views on topics important to Christians that are both fair-minded and respectful of the biblical text. Each volume is a one-stop reference that allows readers to evaluate the different positions on a specific issue and form their own, educated opinion.
