Review:
“...the ten essays represent a wide range of viewpoints, from ‘liberal’ and ‘nontraditional’ to more conservative and evangelical perspectives.” –RBL (Society of Biblical Literature), 2/05
“The feminist perspective on Paul has been underrepresented in publications that can be readily accessed as exegetical resources for theological students. This volume responds to that need.... It provides a sampling of feminist approaches to New Testament texts. It exemplifies, on the whole, very careful work with primary texts that extend beyond those of the New Testament canon.” – Review of Biblical Literature, 4/05 (Review of Biblical Literature)
