Kamionkowski argues that the abomination of ""wife Jerusalem"" is that she is attempting to pass for a male, thereby crossing gender boundaries and upsetting the world order. This story is therefore one of confused gender scripts, ensuing chaos and a re-ordering through the reinforcement of these strictly defined prescriptions of gendered behaviour.Using socio-historical evidence and the existence of the literary motif of ""men turning into women"" as a framework,Journal for the study of the Old Testament.Supplement series ;368.Sex roleReligious aspectsChristianitySex roleReligious aspectsChristianity.224.406224/.406Kamionkowski S.
