Produktbeschreibung
In this volume, Deborah Appler and Terry Ann Smith offer a sustained investigation and feminist critique of Ezra-Nehemiah that moves beyond traditional historical and theological interpretations of Ezra-Nehemiah. Their intersectional analysis engages themes of gender, power, economics, and social justice. Tensions between group inclusion and exclusion are evident in Ezra-Nehemiah, and the authors bring attention to the complexities associated with identity formation and boundary-making for a repatriated community. Their analysis amplifies often overlooked voices in the text and offers insight into how issues of faith, marginalization, and communal solidarity complicate what it means to "come home." Their collaborative analysis of Ezra-Nehemiah demonstrates how ancient and modern communities grapple with community formation and identity amidst ever-evolving social and cultural challenges.

Autorenporträt
Deborah Ann Appler is the professor of Hebrew Bible/Old Testament at Moravian Theological Seminary in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, an ordained elder in the Eastern Pennsylvania Conference of the United Methodist Church, and an Earth Keeper for the UMC Board of Global Ministries. Her research, publications, and teaching seek to encourage conversations around community justice, especially as these issues appear in biblical texts and intersect with gender, sexuality, elder issues, and food justice. She participated in several archaeological excavations, including Jezreel, Megiddo, and Ramat Rachel to better understand the history and culture behind biblical texts. Terry Ann Smith is the associate dean of institutional assessment and associate professor of biblical studies at New Brunswick Theological Seminary in New Brunswick, New Jersey. Her research interests and publications focus on inspections of the Hebrew Bible that expose normalized inequitable distributions of power and privilege as these intersect categories of ethnicity, class, and gender. As an ordained Baptist minister, she is particularly interested in contextualized socio-political readings of biblical texts that foster conversations which address the theological, practical, and ethical applications of the Bible by the church.
