Book Description
The Oxford Handbook of Feminist Approaches to the Hebrew Bible brings together 37 essential essays written by leading international scholars, examining crucial points of analysis within the field of feminist Hebrew Bible studies. Organized into four major areas - globalization, neoliberalism, media, and intersectionality - the essays collectively provide vibrant, relevant, and innovative contributions to the field. The topics of analysis focus heavily on gender and queer identity, with essays touching on African, Korean, and European feminist hermeneutics, womanist and interreligious readings, ecofeminist and animal biblical studies, migration biblical studies, the role of gender binary voices in evangelical-egalitarian approaches, and the examination of scripture in light of trans women's voices. The volume also includes essays examining the Old Testament as recited in music, literature, film, and video games. The Oxford Handbook of Feminist Approaches to the Hebrew Bible charts a culturally, hermeneutically, and exegetically cutting-edge path for the ongoing development of biblical studies grounded in feminist, womanist, gender, and queer perspectives.
Review
"diverse and thought-provoking" -- ROSALIE Ní MHAOLDOMHNAIGH, Journal for the Study of the Old Testament
"... Scholz has collated multivalent voices whose essays "offer conceptual and exegetical ways forward" (lii); thus contributors present insightful ideas for future explorations, offering multiple jumping-off points rather than final says." -- Megan Fullerton Strollo, Union Presbyterian Seminary
"The Oxford Handbook of Feminist Approaches to the Hebrew Bible is an important collection, with essays that will benefit specialists and generalists alike." -- John W. Herbst, Reading Religion
"The Handbook includes interdisciplinary, transdisciplinary, interreligious, and artistic readings of biblical texts, connecting feminist, womanist, queer, and otherwise gender-just biblical scholarship to racism, classism, homophobia, heteronormativity, phallogocentrism, geopolitics, sexual violence, and environmental degradation." -- Carol J.Dempsey, The Catholic Biblical Quarterly
