The first volume of The Bible and Women series dedicated to biblical reception history in the West, the history of women, and issues of gender

In the first volume of the Bible and Women series, contributors focus on texts about individual women and gender-relevant biblical themes. Essays explore male-female identity in the image of God, the rights and responsibilities of women according to the Hebrew Bible’s legal and ritual texts, how archaeology and iconography can illustrate the texts of the Torah, and much more. An introduction from the editors lays out the scope and approach of the series, which will release each volume in four languages.

Irmtraud Fischer is a professor of Old Testament at the University of Graz, Austria.

Mercedes Navarro Puerto is a professor of Bible and Gender at the EFETA (Feminist Theology College in Andalusia).
