The maleness of Jesus : is it good news for women?, Neil H. Williams

Creator
Summary
  • At the center of Christianity is Jesus of Nazareth, whose maleness is used by many to justify the subordination of women and to emphasize that men, rather than women, better represent Jesus. This raises a number of questions that are the subject of the book. What is the significance of Jesus' maleness? Does it reveal the character of God? Is it foundational for the gospel? Is Jesus' maleness associated with an ongoing created order of male priority? Our answers will affect Christianity's task of love, justice, and reconciliation in a world that is characterized by global marginalization, oppression, and abuse of women
