This best-selling book, now revised and updated, shares the work of many feminist biblical scholars who have examined women's stories for several years. These stories are powerful accounts of women in the Old Testament--stories that have profoundly affected how women understand themselves as well as men's perception of them.

A good book, easy to read, provides plenty of food for thought. Bellis gives short explanations of various Feminist readings of each character. What is missing is comprehensive readings of any of them.

It's a good place to start if you are working on any of the individual women, but not the place to finish.

It isn't a book to use for a study group on women of the Bible - but a good book for the leader to have read. A lot of the points brought up would be good to use for discussion.

All in all a book I'm glad to have in my library, but not the book I had hoped it would be. (

Feminist theology from a range of writers - particularly intersting are the sections on different ways of reading the Adam and Eve story.
