Salty Wives- Spirited Mothers- and Savvy Widows: Capable Women Of Purpose and Persistence in Luke's Gospel

Engaging feminist hermeneutics and philosophy in addition to more traditional methods of biblical study- Salty Wives- Spirited Mothers- and Savvy Widows demonstrates and celebrates the remarkable capability and ingenuity of several women in the Gospel of Luke. While recent studies have exposed women's limited opportunities for ministry in Luke- Scott Spencer pulls the pendulum back from a negative feminist-critical pole toward a more constructive center. Granting that Luke sends somewhat "mixed messages" about women's work and status as Jesus' disciples- Spencer analyzes such women as Mary- Elizabeth- Joanna- Martha and Mary- and the infamous yet intriguing wife of Lot -- whom Jesus exhorts his followers to "remember" -- as well as the unrelentingly persistent women characters in Jesus' parables.
