Who are the mothers in the biblical text? What do they do? What
kinds of power do they have? Issues of identity, authority,
violence, gender, sexuality, race, ethnicity, sexual exploitation
and rape-marriage, murder, and relation to God have haunted the
characters and representations of motherhood from Eve to Mary and
beyond. For better or for worse, these images speak potent messages
even today. To explore biblical mothers and their relationships
with their daughters and sons, the contributors to this volume
participate in a comparative analysis between biblical mothers and
mothers in popular media, history, literature, and the arts. The
diversity of methods they employ prompts a rich discussion on the
deconstruction of motherhood, offering new ways of envisioning both
biblical and contemporary motherhood.The contributors are Cheryl A.
Kirk-Duggan and Tina Pippin, Madeline McClenney-Sadler, Wil Gafney,
Brian Britt, Frank M. Yamada, Mignon R. Jacobs, Linda S. Schering,
Mark Roncace and Deborah Whitehead, Andrew M. Mbuvi, Stephanie
Buckhanon Crowder, Brenda Wallace, Margaret Aymer, Tat-siong Benny
Liew, and Alison Jasper.
