THE MAKING OF BIBLICAL WOMANHOOD How the Subjugation of Women Became Gospel Truth Beth Allison Barr Historian Beth Allison Barr shows that “biblical womanhood” isn’t biblical but arose from a series of clearly definable historical moments. She presents a better way forward for the contemporary church. “This fervent, bold, and sweeping history of Christianity and patri- archy is an absolute game changer. Any future debates will need to reckon with Barr’s contention that the subjugation of women has nothing to do with gospel truth.” —KRISTIN KOBES DU MEZ, Calvin University; author of Jesus and John Wayne “Barr’s careful historical examples drawn especially from medieval history hold together a brilliant, thunderous narrative that untells the complementarian narrative. I could not put this book down.” —SCOT M c KNIGHT, Northern Seminary
