Produktinformationen zu „Revelation / Wisdom Commentary Series Bd.58 (ePub)“
While feminist interpretations of the Book of Revelation often focus on the book's use of feminine archetypes-mother, bride, and prostitute, this commentary explores how gender, sexuality, and other feminist concerns permeate the book in its entirety. By calling audience members to become victors, Revelation's author, John, commends to them an identity that flows between masculine and feminine and challenges ancient gender norms. This identity befits an audience who follow the Lamb, a genderqueer savior, wherever he goes.
In this commentary, Lynn R. Huber situates Revelation and its earliest audiences in the overlapping worlds of ancient Asia Minor (modern Turkey) and first-century Judaism. She also examines how interpreters from different generations living within other worlds have found meaning in this image-rich and meaning-full book.

In 1987-2010 she taught at Candler School of Theology, Emory University, where she was also an associate dean for seven years. O'Day's research focused on the Gospel of John and the book of Revelation.
