What Jesus Learned from Women by James F. McGrath Pdf
Dehumanization has led to serious misinterpretation of the Gospels. On the one hand, Christians have often made Jesus so much more than human that it seemed inappropriate to ask about the influence other human beings had on him, male or female. On the other hand, women have been treated as less than fully human, their names omitted from stories and their voices and influence on Jesus neglected. When we ask the question this book does, what Jesus learned from women, puzzling questions that have frustrated readers of the Gospels throughout history suddenly find solutions. Weaving cutting edge biblical scholarship together with an element of historical fiction and a knack for writing for a general audience, James McGrath makes the stories of women in the New Testament come alive, and sheds fresh light on the figure of Jesus as well. This book is a must read for scholars, students, and anyone else interested in Jesus and/or in the role of ancient women in the context of their times.

Written with poetic rhythm, a prophetic voice, and a deeply biblical foundation, this loving yet fearless book urges today’s church to move beyond man-made restrictions and fully welcome women’s diverse voices and experiences. A freedom song for the church. Sarah Bessey didn’t ask for Jesus to come in and mess up all her ideas about a woman’s place in the world and in the church. But patriarchy, she came to learn, was not God’s dream for humanity. Bessey engages critically with Scripture in this gentle and provocative love letter to the Church.

How did Jesus really view women? Some of the familiar stories in the Bible about Jesus' interactions with women can be pretty challenging to understand. Does the Word of God give us clues about how Jesus may have viewed the women who approached Him?

What is the most important thing to remember when we read these stories about Jesus and women? This book is one woman's effort to understand the heart of the Savior when He dealt with the brokenness, insecurities, and needs of women in the Bible. This book focuses on ten women's stories including the woman at the well, the Canaanite woman, and the women in Jesus' genealogy. Be blessed as you read about Jesus and His love for women that others may have labeled “unlovable.”
