Beth Allison Barr: Making of Biblical Womanhood (2021, Brazos Press) 4 stars

Review of 'Making of Biblical Womanhood' on 'Storygraph'

5 stars

Fascinating historical survey of the development of what's called "biblical womanhood," which is in fact a relatively modern invention by Protestant evangelicals either ignorant of the history of women's place in the church or who privilege their own notion of the Bible's "plain sense" over tradition.
