Thinking critically about women\u0026amp;#39;s roles in the Roman world of the New Testament is a task taken up by multiple academic disciplines and within the complexities of Christianity. 1 Thoughtful, faithful, analytical readers look to female exemplars in scripture and material culture to help both women and men utilize the narratives of women in their own devotional practices. New Testament women are presented in distinct scriptural accounts that underscore profoundly symbolic and archetypal meanings. Our understanding of these meanings is enhanced through the practice of careful reading, scriptural exegesis, and hermeneutics. These rigorous practices expand the way we see and understand women in ever-growing and capacious ways. Women in scripture are presented to us by their writers through a variety of lenses. We read their stories and narratives and often wish that our limited view of them was more informed or that we could see further than the distance offered by the text. Paying attention to the language and imagery of archetypes is important in studying scripture precisely because they speak directly to our understanding in both individual and communal ways. 2 This chapter focuses on a few specific archetypes of New Testament women that signify their position and power, while also considering the realia of lived religious experience for women. It is also important to examine the models for women who were not in traditional positions of power 29 Women and the World of the New

This paper will assess their contribution by examining the various functions and responsibilities held by women as described in the New Testament and Canonical Gospels. The assessment will commence with a brief description of the lives of women in the Greco-Roman world. This description of the cultural setting will serve as an introduction to Jesus’ attitude towards and interaction with women, who were among his first followers. Women continued to function in the early church in a variety of roles such as apostles, evangelists, prophets, teachers and house church leaders, using their skills to spread the message and further the impact of the fledgling religion. A close examination of these multifarious roles, drawing on the Canonical Gospels as primary source, will demonstrate the integral part women played in the dissemination of Christianity.</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"The Role of Women in the New Testament and Canonical Gospels.","attachmentId":47069959,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/26795249/The_Role_of_Women_in_the_New_Testament_and_Canonical_Gospels","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/26795249/The_Role_of_Women_in_the_New_Testament_and_Canonical_Gospels"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="1" data-entity-id="77276106" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/77276106/Feminist_Biblical_Scholarship_and_Its_Important_Contributions_to_the_Portrayal_of_Women_in_the_Life_of_the_Church">Feminist Biblical Scholarship and Its Important Contributions to the Portrayal of Women in the Life of the Church</a><div class="ds-related-work--metadata"><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="54420892" href="https://independent.academia.edu/HannahWilliams68">Hannah Williams</a></div><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"Feminist Biblical Scholarship and Its Important Contributions to the Portrayal of Women in the Life of the Church","attachmentId":84681258,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/77276106/Feminist_Biblical_Scholarship_and_Its_Important_Contributions_to_the_Portrayal_of_Women_in_the_Life_of_the_Church","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/77276106/Feminist_Biblical_Scholarship_and_Its_Important_Contributions_to_the_Portrayal_of_Women_in_the_Life_of_the_Church"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="2" data-entity-id="43543995" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/43543995/Gender_Relations_in_the_New_Testament_A_Feminist_Anabaptist_Reading">Gender Relations in the New Testament: A Feminist Anabaptist Reading</a><div class="ds-related-work--metadata"><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="49575979" href="https://ibts.academia.edu/FranPorter">Fran Porter</a></div><p class="ds-related-work--metadata ds2-5-body-xs">Baptistic Theologies, 2017</p><p class="ds-related-work--abstract ds2-5-body-sm">Against centuries of framing gender relations on the basis of so-called biblical ‘hard passages’, I offer an expansive three-fold way of reading the new Testament that is both feminist and Anabaptist. Using both a hermeneutics of suspicion about power and Christocentric biblical interpretation, I seek to counter women’s inequality, disadvantage and subordination. I argue for: taking a broad look at the text when thinking about gender relations to uncover the story of gender in unlikely places that I argue should become the most likely places; paying attention to the diversity of early Christian location, experience and expression in the context of the politics and society of the ancient world; and within this framework revisiting specific texts predominantly associated with a gender hierarchy to encounter exhortations of moral agency, behaviour and activity.

Using a broad definition of ‘feminist’ (to include virtually any work focused primarily on women or female issues presented in the biblical text) and a more stringent definition of ‘New Testament’ (including only those texts that are a part of the New Testament canon, but not larger socio-historical studies or extracanonical literature), the article offers an overview of trends in feminist scholarship on the Gospels and Acts, the Pauline epistles, the General Epistles and Hebrews, and Revelation, noting that this body of scholarship may be characterized as being diverse, collaborative, and centered on female characters within the New Testament texts. With open vistas for exploration remaining, the article forecasts a rich future for feminist approaches to the New Testament.</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"Recent Feminist Approaches to Interpreting the New Testament","attachmentId":86296204,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/79589564/Recent_Feminist_Approaches_to_Interpreting_the_New_Testament","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/79589564/Recent_Feminist_Approaches_to_Interpreting_the_New_Testament"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="4" data-entity-id="13965778" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/13965778/Women_in_the_Old_Testament_Issues_of_Authority_Power_and_Justice">Women in the Old Testament: Issues of Authority, Power and Justice</a><div class="ds-related-work--metadata"><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="839470" href="https://baylor.academia.edu/DennisTucker">Dennis Tucker</a></div><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"Women in the Old Testament: Issues of Authority, Power and Justice","attachmentId":38169029,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/13965778/Women_in_the_Old_Testament_Issues_of_Authority_Power_and_Justice","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/13965778/Women_in_the_Old_Testament_Issues_of_Authority_Power_and_Justice"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="5" data-entity-id="37729760" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/37729760/Women_in_the_Bible_RELS_4910_">Women in the Bible (RELS 4910)</a><div class="ds-related-work--metadata"><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="53207455" href="https://independent.academia.edu/ElMeg">Eliza Rosenberg</a></div><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"Women in the Bible (RELS 4910)","attachmentId":57723755,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/37729760/Women_in_the_Bible_RELS_4910_","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/37729760/Women_in_the_Bible_RELS_4910_"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="6" data-entity-id="45291095" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/45291095/Newsom_Carol_A_Sharon_H_Ringe_and_Jacqueline_E_Lapsley_eds_Women_s_Bible_Commentary_3rd_ed_Louisville_KY_Westminster_John_Knox_2012">Newsom, Carol A, Sharon H.

It presents an opportunity to explore biblical texts and characters that can be challenging to modern readers, and to discover their relevance and meaning today. In all their diversity, the women in this book play a vital part in the history of salvation, the great story of God’s involvement with humankind. The stories featuring these women have been considered as so important that they were told and re-told, written down, preserved over many centuries, and finally handed down to us as ‘Word of God’. This Friendly Guide demonstrates that, even though there are more male than female characters in the Old Testament, women are as significant in bringing about God’s plans – or in hindering them – as are men, and sometimes even more.</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button"
