Overview

"The answer to the commodification of ""Jesus"" is not a rejection of critical scholarship and Jesus research but a call for their investigation in terms of ideology critique and ethics. By claiming to produce knowledge about the ""real"" Jesus, Schussler Fiorenza points out, mainstream as well as feminist scholars refuse to stand accountable for their reconstructive cultural models and theological interests. Hence, she calls for an ethics of interpretation that can explore such a scholarly politics of meaning, rather than the ideological discourses on ""Jesus and Women"" that are fraught with both anti-Judaism and anti-feminism."
