Impurity and Gender in the Hebrew Bible explores the role of female
blood in the Hebrew Bible and considers its theological
implications for future understandings of purity and impurity in
the Jewish religion. Influenced by the work of Jonathan Klawans
(Sin and Impurity in Ancient Judaism), and using the categories of
ritual and moral impurities, this book analyzes the way in which
these categories intersect with women and with the impurity of
female blood, and reads the biblical foundations of purity and
blood taboos with a feminist lens. Ultimately, the purpose of this
book is to understand the intersection between impurity and gender,
figuratively and non-figuratively, in the Hebrew Bible. Goldstein
traces this intersection from the years 1000 BCE-250 BCE and ends
with a consideration of female impurity in the literature of
Qumran.
