Reading the Women of the Bible: A New Interpretation of Their Stories

Winner of the National Jewish Book Award - Reading the Women of the Bible takes up two of the most significant intellectual and religious issues of our day: the experiences of women in a patriarchal society and the relevance of the Bible to modern life.

"Frymer-Kensky addresses both modern hypotheses and traditional beliefs, and acknowledges which arguments can be supported and which questions remain unanswered. [A] very approachable text." --Houston Chronicle
