Utilizing the theory of hegemonic masculinity and homosociality,
Moses: Man Among Men? explores the relationships that Moses shares
with other male characters. While the dynamic nature of hegemonic
masculinity is recognized, Anthony Rees builds on the categories of
masculinity already well-established within the existing literature
on masculinity in Old Testament characterization. The author argues
that almost uniformly, Moses is presented in ways which elevate him
at the expense of these other male characters. Recognizing the
social dimension of gender performance, and in particular the
homosocial nature of masculine identity, this book also pays
attention to the social nature of these relationships, in
particular those of Moses’ family members.
