Description
Summary:Foreword: "Tell it on the mountain"--or, "And you shall tell your daughter [as well]" / Athalya Brenner-Idan -- Editor's introduction to Wisdom commentary: "She is a breath of the power of God" (Wis 7:25) / Barbara E. Reid, OP -- Learning Qoheleth's language (1:1-18) -- A test is pleasure hevel? (2:1-26) -- What time? (3:1-22) -- From hevel to carpe diem and much in-between (4:1-5:20 [heb 4:1-5:19]) -- Good, better, wise (6:1-7:14) -- On wisdom and women (or woman wisdom) (7:15-29) -- From wisdom to death (8:1-9:6) -- Carpe diem and related imperatives (9:7-18) -- Closing advice and epilogue (10:1-12:14) -- Afterword: Qoheleth as a model for feminist hermeneutics.
"This commentary on Quoheleth (Ecclesiastes) provides a feminist interpretation of Scripture in serious, scholarly engagement with the whole text, not only those texts that explicitly mention women. It addresses not only issues of gender but also those of power, authority, ethnicity, racism, and classism"--
