Description
A Feminist Companion to Prophets and Daniel is a thought-provoking collection of essays that re-examine the role of women in biblical prophecy. This final volume in the Feminist Companion to the Bible series offers fresh perspectives on the figure of the Goddess, female prophets, and the complexities of prophetic literature. The book explores various themes, including the portrayal of Yahweh as a violent husband, the significance of eroticism in prophetic texts, and the challenges of saying no to a prophet. Contributors from diverse backgrounds bring their expertise to bear on these topics, shedding new light on figures like Belshazzar's mother, often overlooked in traditional interpretations. Through its engaging and humorous approach, this book invites readers to reconsider the biblical narrative and its relevance to contemporary feminist debates.
