A Feminist Companion to Matthew

Amy-Jill Levine

Paperback 2001-09-01

Publisher Description

Ground-breaking feminist analyses from diverse methodological and cultural perspectives on the Gospel of Matthew's depictions of women, gender, sexuality and social class. Conjoining diverse methodological and ideological approaches with a focus on specific texts, this inaugural volume to the new series presents ground-breaking insights on the Gospel of Matthew. The eleven saaya address women's social roles and literary representations, earthly and heavenly fathers, purity regulations and household configurations, Jesus and Wisdom, professional and lay reactions to women's service, the Canaanite women and the women at the tomb, and the interrelation of Matthew's female characters and contemporary struggles for justice. Throughout, the articles expose the politics of gender and sexuality imbedded both in the narrative and, often in the scholarship on the Gospel. This volume includes contributions by J. Capel Anderson, J. Sheffield, A.-J. Levine, C. Deutsch, G. O'Day, E. Wainwright, S. Humphries-Brooks, A. Saldarini, E. Rosenblatt, T. Longstaff and C. Osiek.
