Description

Explore the complex social and economic dynamics of women in the ancient world with this scholarly study from Routledge. Sexual Hospitality in the Hebrew Bible examines the lives of women who lived under the authority of fathers and brothers, often being used as sexual gifts to build social or political alliances. This book provides a deep look into how these women navigated a world where their status was defined by male relatives. While social structures were restrictive, the text highlights how women utilized specific socio-economic rights, particularly regarding property and inheritance, to protect their interests. By looking at patronymic marriage, sacred sexuality, and ritual fecundity, this work offers a detailed analysis of gender, theology, and spirituality in the Hebrew Bible. It is an essential resource for those studying ancient history, religious studies, and the historical roles of women in biblical contexts.
