Postcolonial Feminist Interpretation of the Bible - Paperback

by Musa W. Dube (Author), Musa Dube-Shomanah (Author)

Noting that the ways of interpreting the Bible now practiced in the West are patriarchal and oppressive of those in other parts of the world, Dube offers an alternative interpretation that attends to and respects needs of women in the two-thirds world. In a provocative and insightful reading of the book of Matthew, she shows us how to read the Bible as decolonizing rather than imperialist literature.
