Coles Seeing Women in the Old Testament at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
The Old Testament includes more women than any other book of scripture. Nevertheless, sometimes we need help to see these women more clearly. The text, like most existing scripture, is written from a male perspective, and an ancient male perspective at that. Seeing women was rarely the ancient writers’ primary concern, but that doesn’t mean we can’t find the women who are there and learn from them. This book helps us do just that, broadening our perspective and helping us take in more of what the Old Testament can offer us.
In this volume, six female religion scholars employ their voices and expertise to help us more clearly see women in the Old Testament as they testify to the goodness, mercy, and graciousness of God. We will notice women we’ve never seen before, come to know elements of well-known women’s stories that we might miss on our own, and consider why these ancient stories matter to us today.
