Beskrivning
The Second Book of Kings—a book whose very title seems to assert the prerogative of male rule—is in fact filled with fascinating female characters as well as issues related to gender. In this commentary, Song-Mi Suzie Park argues that an interrogation of the masculinity of YHWH, Israel’s deity, functions as the driving force behind the narrative in 2 Kings. While the sufficiency of YHWH’s masculinity is affirmed by his military and reproductive prowess, it is also challenged and deconstructed through the painful defeats that end the book. Through a series of close readings, Park elucidates how the story of Israel’s monarchic past in 2 Kings unfolds through a process of continual reformulation of masculinity and femininity in relation to YHWH and Israel.

Recensioner i media

"Park argues that 2 Kings both affirms the masculinity of the God of Israel, as evidenced primarily by his military prowess, and challenges it in light of the destruction first of Israel and then of Judah. Like all the commentaries in this series, this volume is well-researched, carefully argued, and often challenging in its conclusions."The Bible Today
