Joseph Pearson4 Stars Out Of 5July 1, 2008Joseph PearsonAs a retired academician, I have long been aware that academicians are required to invent new hypotheses and substantiate them in order to be viewed as scholars by both local, national and international academic communities through the production of so-called new knowledge. With that said, the author of Daughters of Miriam: Women Propets in Ancient Israel, who is an academic, has done an able job in treating the titled subject. Although there may be some novel inventions in the author's work and some feminist and liberationist biases contained therein, she has done a capable job in laying the foundation for who and what a prophet/prophetess is and in reviewing roles prophets and prophetesses, both actual and speculative, within the Holy Bible. I recommend the work for both men and women equally, but especially for women who may think that the Church wants to keep them in subordinate roles forever.
