About this title

Review:

"Many of Camp's ideas are fascinating, and she often has excellent insight into the biblical text. Those interested in feminist readings of the text, as well as those interested in the post-exilic period, a highly significant time for the formation of the Bible, will find this a helpful and challenging book on the creation of identity in the Bible."
Kathryn Muller Lopez, Interpretation, October 2001

"This book offers a complex but fascinating investigation of literary and religious symbols." Theological Book Review, Feed the Minds
