Presenter: Dr. Jaime L. Waters
Inspired by diverse traditions and misinterpretations of Mary of Magdala, this presentation embarks on a rereading of select women in the Bible. Several biblical women, such as Hagar, Jezebel, and the Samaritan woman at the well, have been interpreted unfavorably and have been associated with negative attributes. In her presentation, Dr. Jaime L. Waters, associate professor of Old Testament, Boston College School of Theology and Ministry, rereads women to offer avenues of interpretation that honor women of the past and inspire readers today.
