Voices Long Silenced

In Voices Long Silenced, authors Joy A. Schroeder and Marion Ann Taylor illuminate the often-overlooked contributions of women who interpreted the Bible from 100-2000 CE. The book highlights the experiences of Jewish and Christian women, including rabbis, nuns, and teachers, who engaged with Scripture through their writings, showcasing their unique perspectives and interpretations in contrast to their male counterparts. It also discusses the preservation and loss of these interpretive works, while calling on scholars and communities to recognize and honor the diverse roles women have played in biblical interpretation and ministry.
