They are a sisterhood of faith.\u003cbr\u003e As such, they challenge many of our assumptions about the role of women in the development of the biblical story; about the impact of faith on lives lived in the 'heat and dust' of the real world. Here we will meet the prostitute who ended up in the genealogy of Jesus, a national resistance fighter, a determined victim of male sexual behaviour who challenged patriarchal power, a far from meek and mild mother of Jesus, a woman whose life has been so misrepresented that she is now the subject of the most bizarre conspiracy theories, and more.\u003cbr\u003e Renowned historians and Biblical scholars, Martyn and Esther Whittock, take the reader on a fascinating journey, one unafraid to ask difficult questions, such as, 'Was Eve set up to fall?'\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMartyn Whittock =============== \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMartyn Whittock\u003c\/strong\u003e graduated in Politics from Bristol University and is the author or co-author of fifty-two books, including school history textbooks and adult history books.
