What follows is from Suzanne's Bookshelf one of the Bible bloggers I try to read regularly. Suzanne does some extraordinary in depth work on egalitarian issues in the Bible but also on women Bible translators and researchers. Suzanne is a really engaged and committed writer who blogs on these issues in her spare time.
I'd like to share a few biblioblogs which post on women of the Bible. Claude Mariottini often has excellent posts on women of the Hebrew Bible. I think you would enjoy this one on Deborah and Queen Hatshepsut's Perfume.
James Getz of Ketuvim has a post on Women Nazirites. Dave Warnock mentions that Angela Shier-Jones thinks we need more women engaging in theology.
Her.meneutics is a new blog for women at Christianity Today. HT Evangelical Village. Cynthia Nielsen completes a four part series on Paul and Slavery.
Meanwhile some of you may also be interested in J K Gayle's blogs. He writes quite extensively about feminism, philosophy the Bible and life. Here's a taster:
This is a post of two long but important observations of Carolyn Custis James and Tod Linafelt, respectively, about the literary play in the Bible. By "play," I mean both interpretive "wiggle room" and hermeneutic "playfulness." It's the kind of "reading" against which Aristotle taught. It's the kind of perspective that feminists tend to find useful in overcoming profound misogyny and gynophobia in texts that would perpetuate sexist or racist inequalities.
