Maggiori informazioni sul libro
The book examines the evolution of Israel's understanding of God throughout the Hebrew Scriptures, highlighting women's significant roles in early cultic practices, particularly within domestic settings. It argues that societal changes in the sixth century, marked by upheaval and the rise of priestly authority, led to a redefinition of God as a male figure. The author investigates how women lost their influence in Israelite religious life and the transition of Yahweh from having a consort, Asherah, to becoming a singular, male deity.
