    Edited by

    Victor H. Matthews, Bernard M. Levinson, and Tikva Frymer-Kensky

    What roles does gender play in the formulation of ancient law and custom? The answers
    contribute to feminist scholarship and legal history. This striking new contribution to gender
    studies demonstrates the essential role of Israelite and Near Eastern law in the historical
    analysis of gender. The theme of these studies of Babylonian, Hittite, Assyrian, and Israelite
    law is this: What is the significance of gender in the formulation of ancient law and custom?
    Feminist scholarship is enriched by these studies in family history and the status of women in
    antiquity. At the same time, conventional legal history is repositioned, as new and classical texts
    are interpreted from the vantage point of feminist theory and social history. Papers from the SBL
    Biblical Law Section form the core of this collection.
