"Women prophets proclaimed and performed the word of God at formative moments in ancient Israel's history, and were expected in biblical visions of the future. Now they come to the foreground as Wilda C. Gafney explores women's involvement in prophetic activities and sacred roles in ancient Israel, its near eastern environment, and early Christianity and rabbinic Judaism as well."--BOOK JACKET.
