Thinking and Seeing with Women in Revelation - The Library of New Testament Studies
Dr. Lynn R. Huber
Marc Notes: Lynn R. Huber argues that the visionary aspect of 'Revelation', with its use of metaphorical thinking and language, is the crux of the text's persuasive power. Emerging from a context that employs imagery to promote imperial mythologies, 'Revelation' draws upon a long tradition of using feminine imagery as a tool of persuasion. It does so even while shaping a community identity in contrast to the dominant culture and in exclusive relationship with the Lamb. By drawing upon the work of medieval and modern visionaries, Huber answers a call to examine the way 'real' readers engage with biblical texts. Biographical Note: Lynn R. Huber is Assistant Professor of Religious Studies at Elon University in Elon, North Carolina, USA.
