"text": "[…] in order to understand the nature of gender in society and the domination of men in most forms of social life, one needs to take a gender-critical perspective of both men and women and the interrelations between them (Evans, 1988); and, in order to bring about any enduring gender equity, men and women need, separately and collectively, to reach a gender-critical understanding and make the changes to their lives accordingly.",

"text": "A decade or more later, it is instructive to consider the status of both feminist and gender-critical approaches to the study of religion. As I have argued elsewhere, despite the ubiquity of gendering as a cultural practice, its significance within religion systems, and its foundational role in shaping human possibility and opportunity, gender has not been widely adopted as an essential analytical category by scholars of religion.",

Building on and encompassing the work of nineteenth- and twentieth-century feminist scholarship and more recent queer studies, biblically focused gender studies seeks to advance the scholarly conversation by systematically exploring the ways in which gender is constructed in the diverse texts, cultures, and readers that constitute “the world of the Bible.”",
