Though possession by a dybbuk has traditionally been understood as punishment for a terrible sin, it can also be seen as a mechanism used by desperate individuals-often women-who had no other means of escape from the demands and expectations of an all-encompassing patriarchal social order. Dybbuks and Jewish Women examines these and other as 606 $aDybbuk 606 $aJewish women$xSocial conditions 606 $aMysticism$xJudaism 606 $aJews$vFolklore 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aDybbuk. 615 0$aJewish women$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aMysticism$xJudaism. 615 0$aJews 676 $a296.316 700 $aElior$b Rachel$0946214 702 $aLinsider$b Joel 702 $aCooper$b Shanie 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910461757403321 996 $aDybbuks and Jewish women$92269056 997 $aUNINA
