by Jane V. Craske (Preface), Phyliis Trible (Author)
Here, the author examines four Old Testament narratives of suffering in ancient Israel: Hagar, Tamar, an unnamed concubine and the daughter of Jephthah. The stories prompt much reflection on contemporary misuse of the Bible, and therefore have considerable relevance in modern times.
