Sacred Witness

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the troubling narratives of sexual violence in biblical literature, Susanne Scholz explores various texts, including those that address marital rape and metaphorical depictions of God as a rapist. By acknowledging the androcentric context of these writings, she seeks to uncover redemptive meanings for individuals affected by sexual violence and "cultures of rape." Sacred Witness offers profound insights into some of the most challenging passages in the Hebrew Bible, aiming to foster understanding and healing.
