Description
Summary:Despite being rooted in a mostly Jewish traditional background, patriarchal, androcentric and misogynous in nature, Matthew places women as the sole witnesses to the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus. Their continuous following of Jesus and their constant presence with him especially at the cross and the tomb meets with the discipleship demands in the Gospel, and therefore attribute to them certain discipleship functions in the firs Gospel. In the absence of the Twelve, Matthew portrays these women as models of discipleship. Through an exegetical-theological-rhetorical approach, the author critically evaluates a wide range of important contemporary literature on the topic, exegeting the Scriptural passages with care and diligence, with deep respect for the word of God, and maintains an irenic and critical sense in a field of study that is often polemical and given to exaggerated and uncritical exegesis.
