Contents:
1. Defining rape -- 2. The Levite's p{circ}ilege{caron}s -- 3. Tamar -- 4. The four elements of biblical rape -- 5. Dinah -- 6. Bathsheba -- 7. Implications for biblical rape.
Summary: In this groundbreaking work to identify and address God's absence in three key rape narratives in the Hebrew Bible, Leah Rediger Schulte finds a pattern that indicates a larger community crisis. With a careful look at Genesis 34, Judges 19, and 2 Samuel 13, this study outlines God's absence, a foreign presence, and a persistent problem that is resolved incorrectly to highlight consequences of the Israelites breaking their covenant with God.
