The Women in the Biblical Tradition Home page was created for the course, Women in the Biblical Tradition, offered at Appalachian State University.

Accoring to the home page of the site, the course was "designed to "introduce and analyze some of the stories of and laws about women in the Hebrew Bible, Christian Scripture and Apocrypha. Also, it "will explore both the Ancient Near Eastern background of these texts, including how goddess traditions relate to the understanding of God in these texts, as well as how these texts continue to have an impact on our contemporary secular and sacred communities." Furthermore, it takes a "methodological approach to the texts favored by feminist and womanist biblical critics and how women are changing the discipline of biblical studies." (Syllabus)

This site has good information from student projects as well as a large number of links to other sites relevant to the subject of women and Christianity.
