Description
"This provocative book, based on analyses of primary sources, examines the role of the feminine deity in religious piety." "Goddess religion was widespread in the world of the Bible and is reflected in many biblical texts. With skill and insight, the field's finest scholars discuss such questions as: What is the relationship between goddesses, their appearances in myth and ritual, and the social roles and practices of women? How can such religious manifestations be understood?"--BOOK JACKET.
