Description

Explore the complex social and religious structures of the ancient world with this scholarly work from Routledge. Sexual Hospitality in the Hebrew Bible examines how gender, theology, and spirituality shaped human connections. The text looks at the lived experiences of women, whose lives were often defined by their social and economic status under the authority of fathers and husbands. This book investigates the tension between social constraints and individual rights. While women were often used as sexual gifts to gain favor within patriarchal systems, they also possessed specific socio-economic rights regarding property and inheritance to protect themselves. By analyzing patronymic and metronymic relations, as well as legitimate and illegitimate connections, this study provides a deep look into sacred sexuality and ritual fecundity. It is an essential resource for those studying ancient history, biblical studies, and the evolution of gender roles in early civilization.
