Recensioner i media

"This volume moves beyond the canonical materials to consider the apocrypha or extracanonical texts. Editor Levine's helpful introduction not only offers an annotated summary of each of the essays in the volume but also situates the interest in the extracanonical materials within the ongoing development of feminist scholarship." - The Bible Today"
