The volume concludes with the author's own original prayers in the form of poetic meditations on pregnancy and birthing. This book is unique, not only because it is the only volume in the JPS Scholar of Distinction series written by a woman, but also because Frymer-Kensky's personal and forthright voice resonates so clearly throughout each piece. Scholars and students of Bible, Jewish studies, and women's studies will surely find this to be a one-of-a kind collection. 410 0$aJPS scholar of distinction series. 606 $aMiddle Eastern literature$xRelation to the Old Testament 615 0$aMiddle Eastern literature$xRelation to the Old Testament. 676 $a220.6082 700 $aFrymer-Kensky$b Tikva Simone$01863354 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910963523303321 996 $aStudies in Bible and feminist criticism$94469967 997 $aUNINA
