Was Eve Our First Heroine?
Kernel Mac
In this new work of biblical criticism, author Kernel Mac assesses the relationship between the first woman, Eve, and both her husband and God-and what her creation meant for humankind. Instead of pigeonholing her as the harbinger of original sin, Mac instead asks, "Was Eve a heroine?" Open up this fresh new interpretation of the biblical and historical Eve, and make your own determination.
Mac doesn't shy away from the hard questions but instead offers a comprehensive analysis of issues both biblical and social:
Was Eve an innocent? Is the concept of "original sin" valid? What's the root of female subordination? What does the church say about women's rights? What role does sexual intercourse play? Do pain and suffering stem from the Garden?
Mac includes an analysis of the writings of John Chrysostom, Augustine, Pelagius, and Julian, among others, and rounds out this well-researched text with an index of biblical citations and a supporting bibliography to aid the reader in further study.
Ultimately, Mac invites the reader to decide what role Eve plays in modern church thought: sinner or saint?
