Talking about God in feminine

Abstract

This article ventures into the possibility of a feminine discourse about God, based on the study of the classical sources, which are not widely known in Spanish. The main theme revolves around male characteristics of God, which until recently, are seen only from the theological description carried out by men and the possibility of another reading, this time female, using the attributes that were awarded to Hebrew Divinity. The most significant contribution of this work lies in the re-definition of God as male-female body, when Adam was created androgen bisexual, and in the image of God Himself. The midrashic sources used in this article show that the issue was dormant for centuries, only in recent years rediscover by a female-driven search for faith based upon God One, with which women can more easily identify as being part of a feminine self.
