      Exploring the predominantly masculine symbolism in Biblical writings, this book challenges the exclusion of women and their spiritual experiences. It examines the implications of Christ as "the second Adam" while questioning Eve's role. A leading scholar of religious language and feminism delves into the Bible's imagery concerning sex, gender, and kinship, linking these themes to key Christian theological concepts such as the doctrine of God, Imago Dei, Creation, Christology, the Trinity, and eschatology.

      Narrative non-fiction at its best: an exciting, fascinating and thought-provoking book about the discovery of an early New Testament manuscript on Mount Sinai by two audacious Victorian ladies.

      Sisters of Sinai
    • Janet Soskice is one of the leading religious philosophers in the English- speaking world. This much- anticipated book deepens her path-breaking work on metaphor and religious language by arguing that we need to reject the notion of 'classical attributes' and return to the venerable theological and philosophical tradition of naming God.
