| Abstract | "In this commentary on Deuteronomy, Wijk-Bos encourages readers to approach the text from a feminist perspective and to question not only the patriarchal practices reflected, but also modern misogynist and androcentric assumptions that they may bring to the world of the text. Divided into eleven sections, Deuteronomy offers insight for our present time, as well as an opportunity to hear new voices, examine cultural and gender-biased interpretations, and draw other conclusions to open up new avenues of understanding God and ourselves"-- Provided by publisher. |
