Women in the World of the Earliest Christians: Illuminating Ancient Ways of Life

Lynn Cohick provides an accurate and fulsome picture of the earliest Christian women by examining a wide variety of firstcentury Jewish and GrecoRoman documents that illuminate their lives. She organizes the book around three major spheres of life: family, religious community, and society in general. Cohick shows that although women during this period were active at all levels within their religious communities, their influence was not always identified by leadership titles nor did their gender always determine their level of participation. The book corrects our understanding of early Christian women by offering an authentic and descriptive historical picture of their lives. Includes blackandwhite illustrations from the ancient world.
