| Abstract | "This book challenges the traditional view that no significant distinction exists between male and female names in the Hebrew Bible. Comparing all female names from the Hebrew Bible, Hebrew inscriptions, and Elephantine documents with comparable male names, it demonstrates clear distinctions of form and content, including theological content"-- Provided by publisher. |
