Huber argues that the visionary aspect of Revelation, with its use of metaphorical thinking and language, is the crux of the text's persuasive power. Emerging from a context that employs imagery to promote imperial mythologies, Revelation draws upon a long tradition of using feminine imagery as a tool of persuasion. It does so even while shaping a community identity in contrast to the dominant culture and in exclusive relationship with the Lamb. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBy drawing upon the work of medieval and modern visionaries, Huber answers a call to examine the way 'real' readers engage with biblical texts. Revealing how Revelation continues to persuade audiences through appeals to the visual and provocative imagery she offers a new sense of how the text metaphorical language simultaneously limits and invites new meaning, unfurling a range of interpretations.","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48833563689165,"sku":"9780567662613","price":52.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0557\/1529\/9533\/files\/imageloader_b6e2158f-f436-47f5-99a0-8800dca1aa9d.jpg?v=1790888587","url":"https:\/\/booksatmidnight.com\/products\/thinking-and-seeing-with-women-in-revelation","provider":"Books At Midnight","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
