dc.description.abstract |
The present South African landscape is typified, amongst other evils, by violent acts committed on women and children. This violence is entrenched in some church and family contexts, not only by the women-unfriendly Bible interpretations, but also by the use of some of the violent biblical texts themselves by those benefiting from patriarchy.
The present essay seeks to confront and challenge the violence perpetrated against the female folk depicted in Judges 19 from the perspective of African women Bible readers in South Africa. |
