"As is to be expected with a volume that promises to remember
women's absences in the field of biblical studies as either
participants of subjects for analysis, the diverse methods used
from those within biblical studies as well as those who offer
contributions from other disciplines attests to the healthy state
of feminist studies in a new millennia. Amy- Jill Levine's timely
caution that without transparency in the sharing of diverse
perspectives our ‘studies risk ossification, the silence of certain
voices, co-optation by those who insist they speak for everyone',
steers the reader through the ensuing ‘storm-centre'."- Deborah
Bower, The Biblical and Critical Theory, Vol. 2, Number 1, 2006
'A valuable volume with an excellant introduction by the
editor!' Review in International Review of Biblical Studies,
vol 51, 2004/05
"...a richly textured collection that is both diverse and
engaging." -Review of Biblical Literature, May 2005
*Review of Biblical Literature*
"A Feminist Companion offers insights from both traditional
evangelical and other ways of seeing the text. It is a fine
resource for continuing studies on the book of Acts and the Early
Church." -Themelios, October 2005
