Women of the bible is very highly recommended
for personal, ecclesiastical, academic, and
community library biblical studies reference
collections. [a] well-written and interesting
introduction to many biblical characters in a
way that is appealing both to students and to a
general interested audience, precisely the
audience to which it is aimed. Here is a helpful
resource for students and general readers
seeking information on 100 biblical characters
and their cultural significance in western

Women of the bible is divided into two sections:
"the book of names" and "the book of stories. "
"the book of names" opens the book and contains
over 400 entries. It is a biographical
dictionary and thesaurus of sorts, listing each
woman - whether named, unnamed, or allegorical -
along with a short description of her life,
alternate spellings, biblical citations where
her story can be found and cross references to
other dictionary entries. It also points out
related entries in the "book of stories. " this
single, alphabetical dictionary is well
researched, easy to follow, and overflowing with
answers to your each and every question. "the
book of stories" makes up the second half of the
book and takes quite a different tone than that
of the dictionary. Here, retold in rich detail,
are the stories of fifty-six very important
women - women whose lives were changed by crisis
and challenge; women who learned, shared, or
shunned faith in the lord. Many of these
stories, when read in the bible, provide only a
bare-bones structure that leaves the reader
wondering about the woman's character and
choices. What prompted her actions? how heavy
was the influence of her culture? in "the book
of stories," the women are fleshed out and given
words and thoughts and ideas to share with the
reader. Their stories are true to the original
texts, but are infused with life and emotion.
They are written in such a way to not only
retell the story, but to humanize their
characters and provide a basis for moral
instruction. You can shout with joy as elizabeth
is granted her longed for child, weep with
sorrow as eve remembers the death of abel, feel
the bond of kinship when ruth refuses to leave
naomi, and experience the piercing sword of
revenge as salome dances for the head of john
the baptizer. They're all here, all real women
and all willing to pay whatever price asked to
gain their heart's desire. Their struggles,
successes and failures still resonate within us
today.

Women of the bible is a product of serious
scholarship that also enables us to consider
what relevance these stories have for today's
women, whose lives are in many ways different
from the stories of our biblical ancestors.
Frymer-kensky succeeds in illuminating with
equal intensity the world of the bible and our
contemporary culture. You'll never see the women
of the bible in quite the same way after reading
tikva frymer-kensky's excellent new book. In her
able hands, these women emerge from the ancient
texts with new strength and vigor. Frymer-kensky
is a dazzling thinker who presents her ideas
with unusual energy and clarity.

new, and as yet unexamined, aspect of the
rabbis' thoughts on women and femininity in

emerges from these traditions constitutes an
important contribution to the study of women's

Her place in christian the- ology has been as
important as her place as "mother of us all,"
and yet, strangely enough, her name is mentioned
in the whole bible but four times - twice in the
old testament and twice in the new. This is not,
however, the only instance in which the
importance of a term in historical theology has
been out of all pro- portion with its prominence
in the bible. The great doctrine of the trinity
is a remarkable case in point it has played a
leading part in historical theology, but in the
bible there is no mention of it whatsoever,
whether or not, as some think, there are
statements in which it exists potentially, and
from which it can be log- ically inferred. The
careful reader will notice that there are 3
women of the bible in genesis two very different
accounts of wom- an's first appearance on the
creative scene; the first in chap, i. They
afford one of the happiest illustra- tions of
that theory of the pentateuch's composite
character which was first broached by astruc, a
french physician, midway of the last century. It
has been fiercely contested, but its acceptance
is now one of the commonplaces in which all
biblical scholars are agreed. As hebrew docu-
ments both of these stories were doubtless of
late (and perhaps foreign) origin. Nothing could
be further from the truth than to suppose that
the bible was written in its present order -
first genesis, then exodus, and so on. Large
por- tions of the pentateuch were written during
or after the exile, and it 'did not reach its
present form until the alexandrian period, after
330 b. That the first account, that of the
elohist, so called, is of a loftier strain than
that of the yah- wehist, is universally agreed.
No part of the bible is more frankly
anthropomorphic than the latter and the next
following chapter, which re- cites the story of
the fall. The god yahweh 4 9 * eve walks in the
garden in the cool of the day, avoid- ing the
uncomfortable heat; he brings the ani- mals to
adam to be named, and discovers that there is
none among them that will make a good helpmeet
for him; when. Adam hides himself yahweh cannot
at first tell where he is; he cross-questions
him about the fatal tree; he is afraid that he
will eat of the tree of life and so live
forever, and, unable (apparently) to destroy the
virtue of the tree, he drives adam and eve out
of the garden and sets cherubim with flam- ing
swords to prevent their coming back. All this is
charmingly naive, but it does not attain to the
dignity of the first account of the creation.
There the word of god creates the man and woman
at once in his own image, while in the second
account the man is made from the wet dust of the
ground and the woman from a bone of his body.

of the bible is that god is part of this story,
as difficult as the journey may be. It may be a
long journey or a short one, perhaps with many
twists and turns, but we know that god walks
with us and waits with us in our pain.

Being abram's wife (see abram's wife), there are
times when she exemplifies the best qualities of
faithfulness and humility, and other times where
she comes off as downright mean or defiant. We
get a little hint that she was something of a
prima donna, or in other words a spoiled brat.
After all, her original name (sarai) means “my
princess” and she is frequently described as
stunningly attractive, gaining her many
privileges. The funny thing is that the story of
sarah doesn't begin until she's already 65. A
pharaoh even tries to take her as his wife,
despite her many years. Her story begins in
genesis 12, with her and her husband's original
names: sarai and abram. Introductionname the one
thing you desire the most in life. Now imagine
that it was confirmed that it was impossible for
you (such as, if you wanted to be professional
athlete, imagine you lose the functions of your
legs or arms). How do you think you would deal
with this? this is how it was for sarai. Her
greatest desire is stated in the first verses
where she appears, in genesis 11:29-30. She
wanted so much to have children, but she was
physically unable to conceive. What command was
given to sarai's husband in v1? what destiny
awaited them? what positive and negative
feelings might be going through sarai?the
journey to canaansee genesis 12:12. Abram was
called by god to go to canaan—a land that god
promised to give abram's descendants. As he and
sarai enter egypt on their way to canaan (the
land which god promised to give their
descendants), abram gets scared. Built by

the stories appear critically and imaginatively.
She also presents sample sermons on the texts
that are equally critical and imaginative.
Surely, with the help of this fine book, pulpits
long silent about god's messages through women
will be so no more. -walter harrelson, emeritus,

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. 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.

Women of the bible is fascinating and reveals a
new, and as yet unexamined, aspect of the
rabbis' thoughts on women and femininity in
general. The profound and complex picture that
emerges from these traditions constitutes an
important contribution to the study of women's
status and gender studies. The editions used for
the sources for which scientific editions have
been published were preferred. Unless specified
otherwise, these editions are in hebrew.

When their stories aren't told regularly, the
church forgets about them and starts to assume
that our faith has roots solely in the deeds of
men. While of course those men's stories are to
be valued and explored, the bible is rich with
examples of women of faith as well. The church
has often failed to heed their stories, but god
remembers who they were and how they served him.
An egyptian slave, cast out by sarah and abraham
into the desert, she epitomized rejection. In
thanksgiving she reaches into her pagan
background and ascribes a name to this god who
saw her struggles. God accepts this name just as
he accepted the rejected and dejected hagar. Her
story is woven into our story of faith - her
name for god one of the brief glimpses we have
of the nature of god. But this isn't a message
they will hear unless we tell the stories of the
women of faith. The story of the midwifes
participating in civil disobedience and standing
up to pharaoh.

Her place in christian the- ology has been as
important as her place as "mother of us all,"
and yet, strangely enough, her name is mentioned
in the whole bible but four times - twice in the
old testament and twice in the new. This is not,
however, the only instance in which the
importance of a term in historical theology has
been out of all pro- portion with its prominence
in the bible. The great doctrine of the trinity
is a remarkable case in point it has played a
leading part in historical theology, but in the
bible there is no mention of it whatsoever,
whether or not, as some think, there are
statements in which it exists potentially, and
from which it can be log- ically inferred. The
careful reader will notice that there are 3
women of the bible in genesis two very different
accounts of wom- an's first appearance on the
creative scene; the first in chap, i. They
afford one of the happiest illustra- tions of
that theory of the pentateuch's composite
character which was first broached by astruc, a
french physician, midway of the last century. It
has been fiercely contested, but its acceptance
is now one of the commonplaces in which all
biblical scholars are agreed. As hebrew docu-
ments both of these stories were doubtless of
late (and perhaps foreign) origin. Nothing could
be further from the truth than to suppose that
the bible was written in its present order -
first genesis, then exodus, and so on. Large
por- tions of the pentateuch were written during
or after the exile, and it 'did not reach its
present form until the alexandrian period, after
330 b. That the first account, that of the
elohist, so called, is of a loftier strain than
that of the yah- wehist, is universally agreed.
No part of the bible is more frankly
anthropomorphic than the latter and the next
following chapter, which re- cites the story of
the fall. The god yahweh 4 9 * eve walks in the
garden in the cool of the day, avoid- ing the
uncomfortable heat; he brings the ani- mals to
adam to be named, and discovers that there is
none among them that will make a good helpmeet
for him; when. Adam hides himself yahweh cannot
at first tell where he is; he cross-questions
him about the fatal tree; he is afraid that he
will eat of the tree of life and so live
forever, and, unable (apparently) to destroy the
virtue of the tree, he drives adam and eve out
of the garden and sets cherubim with flam- ing
swords to prevent their coming back. All this is
charmingly naive, but it does not attain to the
dignity of the first account of the creation.
There the word of god creates the man and woman
at once in his own image, while in the second
account the man is made from the wet dust of the
ground and the woman from a bone of his body.

of the bible is that god is part of this story,
as difficult as the journey may be. It may be a
long journey or a short one, perhaps with many
twists and turns, but we know that god walks
with us and waits with us in our pain.

Being abram's wife (see abram's wife), there are
times when she exemplifies the best qualities of
faithfulness and humility, and other times where
she comes off as downright mean or defiant. We
get a little hint that she was something of a
prima donna, or in other words a spoiled brat.
After all, her original name (sarai) means “my
princess” and she is frequently described as
stunningly attractive, gaining her many
privileges. The funny thing is that the story of
sarah doesn't begin until she's already 65. A
pharaoh even tries to take her as his wife,
despite her many years. Her story begins in
genesis 12, with her and her husband's original
names: sarai and abram. Introductionname the one
thing you desire the most in life. Now imagine
that it was confirmed that it was impossible for
you (such as, if you wanted to be professional
athlete, imagine you lose the functions of your
legs or arms). How do you think you would deal
with this? this is how it was for sarai. Her
greatest desire is stated in the first verses
where she appears, in genesis 11:29-30. She
wanted so much to have children, but she was
physically unable to conceive. What command was
given to sarai's husband in v1? what destiny
awaited them? what positive and negative
feelings might be going through sarai?the
journey to canaansee genesis 12:12. Abram was
called by god to go to canaan—a land that god
promised to give abram's descendants. As he and
sarai enter egypt on their way to canaan (the
land which god promised to give their
descendants), abram gets scared. Built by
