Description
A collection of feminist interpretations of parables about women and women's work. The authors, who include Pheme Perkins, Barbara Reid and Adele Reinhartz, aim to fill a gap in the scholarly literature on parables, bringing to life vignettes from ancient Mediterranean women's lives and offering insights into the place of women in the ministry of Jesus, the early church, and Christian theology. This volume is designed as a resource for scholarship, teaching and preaching.
