Anotace

This work, a revision of the author's Claremont dissertation, examines how women's differing roles in the ancient Greco-Roman world are reflected in the Gospel portraits of women. Focusing on women's varying portrayals in meal or banquet settings, Corley uncovers evidence that women's roles were undergoing radical social change throughout the Greco-Roman world—both in moving toward equality and in returning to a more traditional role. Such spadework helps us in analyzing the conflicting portrayals of women in the New Testament Gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke. Bibliography, notes and an index of ancient sources render this an invaluable tool for studying women in the Synoptics and ancient social attitudes toward women. This volume should be of particular interest to pastors and teachers, as well as college, university, and seminary students.". . . an intriguing work that is highly significant for interpreting the depiction of women and women disciples in the synoptic gospels. It is undoubtedly a 'must read' for anyone seriously interested in the portrayal and participation of women in earlier Christianity. . . ."—Winsome Munro, St. Olaf College"This is a daring thesis. Corely has joined the quest for Christian origins with questions about the role of women in early Christianity. The sparks fly, and both quests are corrected in light of Greco-Roman practice. Brilliant strategy. Remarkable candor."—Burton Mack, School of Theology at Claremont
