By the Hand of a Woman: The Metaphor of the Woman Warrior in Judges 4 Gale A. Yee hold that it is precisely the liminality of the woman warrior, her anomalous position neither inclusively male nor totally female, that permits the metaphor to support, denounce, modify, or otherwise express various facets of gender meanings and relationships.

 

The Kenites, the Midianites, and the Ancient Rechabites as marginal Mediators in Ancient Israelite Tradition. Paula M. McNutt examines the ritual role explicitly attributed to Moses' Midianite father-in-law and it's relatedness to the marginal nature of the social groups with which he is identified. Other members of these groups functioned as ritual specialists and/or as mediators in other social realms. This mediatory function is reflected in the roles played by these groups, or member of these groups, in the content and structure of the Pentateuchal narratives.  -  A response to McNutt by Don C. Benjamin who holds that iron working is not a defining metaphor in the Bible in general or the Pentateuch in particular.

 

The Seventh Day: Against Humanistic Biblical Interperetation  T.E. Wilder  explains that both the prose and the poem in Scripture are narrative, but material is rearranged in the poem. Some narrative elements are the same as in the prose narrative, some are contrary to it. If we did not have the prose narrative we would not know which is which. Clearly, then, the way we read poetry is a lot like the way we read prose, but in this poetry it is much more difficult to be sure of the details of the narrative facts. In this poetry, however, it is easier to ascertain the significance of the narrative facts.
