Evil Queens and Wicked Stepmothers in the Bible


CLOSED

From Delilah and Jezebel to the Whore of Babylon, scripture offers strong archetypes of villainesses. In this six-week class, we will consider the stories of these evil queens and wicked stepmothers in the Bible and how they appear in culture. How can we understand and transcend these narratives? How do they reflect our own experiences? 

The class will include a combination of lectures and experiential activities, with small and large group discussions. We will use spiritual practices to empathize with these women and understand how they fit into the Biblical tradition.

This class is limited to students in the Quaker Leadership Scholars Program at Guilford College.
