{"product_id":"the-womens-study-bible-new-living-translation-9780195291254","title":"The Women's Study Bible New Living Translation","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe majority of Biblical commentary available to readers today is written from the perspective of white  Western  classically educated men. And while this perspective is valid and valuable  it is necessarily partial. The Womens Study Bible  edited by Catherine Clark Kroeger and Mary J. Evans  seeks to redress this imbalance. The annotations and articles collected here dont simply look at passages about women. They look at all of Scripture from a womans perspective  exploring questions that have special relevance for women. How does Scripture speak to women as they give birth and breast-feed  bandage and console  survive intolerable conditions  hold high office  and contemplate both shattered hopes and dreams fulfilled? What was daily life like for women in Biblical times? How do women represented in the Bible speak to women--and men--today? Each biblical book is accompanied by an introduction that lays out dating  authorship  and other historical information  as well as the larger themes of the book--both those specific to women and those that have a broader relevance. Helpful running annotations give more specifics  paying particular attention to the many women who appear in the Bible  highlighting passages that specifically address women and womens issues  and clarifying lessons that women might draw from more general passages. This edition uses the New Living Translation  an easy-to-read translation that employs gender-inclusive language. It also includes New Oxford Bible Maps  extensive back matter  as well as a helpful index to women in the Bible. Written from a faith perspective by a wide range of both male and female scholars from around the world and from different denominational backgrounds  these study tools offer all readers a wealth of information and guidance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45651719225397,"sku":"ByrdShop_0195291255","price":104.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780195291254.jpg?v=1781838224","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-womens-study-bible-new-living-translation-9780195291254","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
