Women in the Ministry of Jesus is a study of both of Jesus'
attitudes towards women as reflected in his words and deeds, and of
the women who were part of his ministry, or who interacted with him
according to the Gospel accounts. The book seeks to provide a
balanced analysis of the relevant Biblical material, and also the
historical background necessary to illuminate the setting of the
Gospel events. Particular attention is given to related issues such
as Jesus' views on marriage, the family and the single life, as
well as his teaching on adultery, the laws of the clean and unclean
and the sabbath. Witherington concludes that Jesus cannot be
categorized neatly either as chauvinist or as feminist.
