The essays in "Bible Trouble" all engage queer theories for
purposes of biblical interpretation, a rare effort to date within
biblical scholarship. The title phrase "Bible Trouble" plays on
"Judith Butler's Gender Trouble", gesturing toward a primary text
for contemporary queer theory. The essays consider, among others,
the Lazarus story, the Ethiopian eunuch, "gender trouble" in
"Judges 4 and 5", the "Song of Songs", and an unorthodox coupling
of the books of Samuel and the film "Paris Is Burning". This volume
"troubles" not only the boundaries between biblical scholarship and
queer theory but also the boundaries between different frameworks
currently used in the analysis of biblical literature, including
sexuality, gender, race, class, history, and literature. The
contributors are Ellen T. Armour, Michael Joseph Brown, Sean D.
Burke, Heidi Epstein, Deryn Guest, Jione Havea, Teresa J. Hornsby,
Lynn R. Huber, S. Tamar Kamionkowski, Joseph A. Marchal, Jeremy
Punt, Erin Runions, Ken Stone, Gillian Townsley, Jay Twomey, and
Manuel Villalobos.
