The result? We miss their significance in the biblical story and, in turn, misunderstand Scripture itself. Scholar Sandra Glahn challenges this pattern, calling readers to recognize how biblical narrative actually works. When we do, we see that women are not incidental to the story but essential to it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn A Woman's Place Is in the Story, Glahn models how we can better read stories in their literary context and understand why the original authors included what they did. She reexamines both well-known and neglected passages, such as Tamar and Judah, the Hebrew midwives, Abigail, and the Samaritan woman at the well. Even when they appear briefly, women in Scripture move the plot forward and reveal profound truths about who God is.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this book, you'll explore\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ehow leaving women out of the biblical story changes the plot and meaning that was intended,\u003cbr\u003ehow distorting women as they appear in the biblical story affects the way we view women in general, and\u003cbr\u003ehow misunderstanding how women appear in the story affects the way we view God.\u003cbr\u003eWomen have always been part of the whole story of God. With A Woman's Place Is in the Story, discover how rightly seeing women in the biblical narrative leads to more faithful interpretation and application for the benefit of all God's people.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt's time to tell the whole story.","brand":"Koorong","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51701055095071,"sku":"9781514011072","price":39.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/koorong.com\/products\/a-womans-place-is-in-the-story-seeing-women-in-the-biblical-narrative-674172","provider":"Koorong","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
