Surrogate mothers, unfaithful husbands, incestuous brothers - these are all members of the first families of the Hebrew Bible, families that, according to Professor Alice Bach, do not exactly exhibit the "family values" we're often accused of lacking in modern times. Bach points out dozens of instances in Genesis and Exodus where women are under- and unrepresented. In fact, the importance of biblical women is measured chiefly by their fertility, particularly in their ability to produce male offspring. So being, should this sacred document be a model for the remoralization of society? In this enlightening and often hilarious discussion Bach offers an example of how women today can rewrite themselves into the Bible by imagining what women would have said if they had been allowed to say anything.
