Beschreibung:
The Reverend Dr. Patricia Dutcher-Walls is Associate Professor of Hebrew Scripture and Old Testament at Knox College, at the University of Toronto, as well as a minister in the Presbyterian Church in Canada.
Powerful. Assertive. Evil. What we know of Jezebel, queen of Israel, seems pure malevolence. But we must remember that what we know is what ancient writers, attempting to shape a theological history, considered important. Combining two portraits of Jezebel (narrative perspective and sociological study), the reader begins to understand the ancient writers' worldviews, theologies, values, and loyalties.
