Queens, Widows, and Mesdames: The Role of Women in the Elijah-Elisha Narrative

Queens, Widows, and Mesdames: The Role of Women in the Elijah-Elisha Narrative

  • Semi-Technical
  • Joel Spoelstra

What does the high density of women appearing in the Elijah-Elisha narrative contribute to the text? This study calls attention to three socio-religious and theological themes in 1 Kings 17-2 Kings 13: food-famine, life-death, and orthodoxy-idolatry.
