Because there are more women in the Gospel of Luke than in any
other gospel, feminists have given it much attention. In this
commentary, Shelly Matthews and Barbara Reid show that feminist
analysis demands much more than counting the number of female
characters. Feminist biblical interpretation examines how the
female characters function in the narrative and also scrutinizes
the workings of power with respect to empire, to anti-Judaism, and
to other forms of othering. Matthews and Reid draw attention to the
ambiguities of the text-both the liberative possibilities and the
ways that Luke upholds the patriarchal status quo-and guide readers
to empowering reading strategies.
