Abstract
Amid the varieties of feminist interpretive methods in biblical scholarship,
this article suggests a general typology of approaches: rejection of
the claims of biblical authority; acceptance of those claims with critique
of oppressive interpretations; revisionism, which holds to the possibility
of reconstructing the lost experience of women in the texts; reliance on
symbol and image of the feminine to convey meaning; and finally, the
liberation critique of oppressive structures. An appreciation and critique
is offered for each alternative.
