2 Kings

Volume 12
BuchGebunden
408 Seiten
Englisch
Liturgical Presserschienen am25.11.2019
The Second Book of Kings-a book whose very title seems to assert the prerogative of male rule-is in fact filled with fascinating female characters as well as issues related to gender. In this commentary, Song-Mi Suzie Park argues that an interrogation of the masculinity of YHWH, Israel´s deity, functions as the driving force behind the narrative in 2 Kings. While the sufficiency of YHWH´s masculinity is affirmed by his military and reproductive prowess, it is also challenged and deconstructed through the painful defeats that end the book. Through a series of close readings, Park elucidates how the story of Israel´s monarchic past in 2 Kings unfolds through a process of continual reformulation of masculinity and femininity in relation to YHWH and Israel.mehr
