Feminist Companion to Paul (Feminist Companion to the New Testament and Early Christian)

A feminist companion to the authentic writings of Paul is bound to generate a good deal of controversy, given the apostle's often provocative and sometimes ambiguous statements about the place of women in the body of Christ. In this formidable collection of essays, Richard Hays, Mary Anne Beavis, Daniel Boyarin, Kathleen Corely, Beverley Gaventa and Luise Schottroff, among others, explore and expose the play of gender roles in Paul's thought and in the organization of the communities he founded and to which he wrote.Feminist Companion to Paul (Feminist Companion to the New Testament and Early Christian), with ISBN 9780826463340 and ISBN 0826463347.
