The female ancestors of Christ

Ulanov, Ann Belford

The female ancestors of Christ - 1st ed - Boston, MA Shambhala c.1993 - vii, 133p.; notes; appendix; index - (A C. G. Jung Foundation Book) .

'Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, and Bathsheba are the only women mentioned by name in the Gospels' genealogies and, for Ann Belford Ulanov, this indicates that they impart something essential to the lineage of Christ. By exploring their brave and unconventional lives, she demonstrates how salvation enters the world in the feminine mode of being human, through these women's embodiment of such powerful and deeply feminine qualities as ingenuity, audacity, determination, compassion, seduction, and devotion.'
