The Book of Exodus: A Critical Theological CommentaryChilds, Brevard S.
Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
"A masterly volume of biblical interpretation from a virtuoso of exegesis."
Kirkus, 12/15/00
Review:A straight, silent read does not do justice to the author's many twists and turns of understanding. Her varied approaches, from literary criticism to Freudian analysis to traditional midrashic argument, are daunting in breadth, and her attention to tensions and contradictions in the text exquisite. Her interpretations are sensual, deeply empathic, creative and at the same time grounded in the biblical text and uncompromisingly logical....Zornberg's project is a revolutionary and even an essential project for the early 21st century. Destabilizing the majestic, authoritative narrative allows for the introduction of hidden stories--women's stories, especially--that the original text and subsequent interpreters gloss over. Zornberg's willingness to sanctify other voices encourages the conflict between individual and normative society, between creativity and obedience. It allows us to understand that ambivalence and struggle do not postpone rapture; they encourage it."
Sarah Blustain, Beliefnet, January 2002
