Monarchy in the ancient Near East and in ancient Judah is most often represented as a world of "men only." Over the past fifty years archaeological discoveries have increasingly brought to light evidence of royal women's involvement. Though the evidence of actual practice has produced great changes in perceptions of the role of royal women, it has not fundamentally altered the perception of monarchy as a "men only" theological, political, and social institution. Nor has the new historical evidence much influenced literary readings of the biblical texts through deeper awareness of the power dynamics, responsibilities, and symbols of the royal house.

520 $a Monarchy in the ancient Near East and in ancient Judah is most often represented as a world of "men only." Over the past fifty years archaeological discoveries have increasingly brought to light evidence of royal women's involvement. Though the evidence of actual practice has produced great changes in perceptions of the role of royal women, it has not fundamentally altered the perception of monarchy as a "men only" theological, political, and social institution. Nor has the new historical evidence much influenced literary readings of the biblical texts through deeper awareness of the power dynamics, responsibilities, and symbols of the royal house.
520 $a Part I of this study presents historical data about ANE royal women in categories that reflect the central functions of the monarchy: access, industry, cult, service, dynasty. This study takes into account the power dynamics and duties of the dynastic household. It raises cautions about the use of the term "harem" in interpreting women's involvement.
520 $a Part II focuses on how royal women are presented as part of the Judean monarchy within the Deuteronomistic History. Close attention is given to three women representing different positions within the royal house: Michal (daughter), Bathsheba (queen mother), Athaliah (queen and "king"). The study draws upon insights from feminist cultural anthropology in examining the historical data and reading the biblical narrative. The historical information from Part I assists in imagining the events and dynamics presented in the biblical narrative and recognizing their significance. Knowledge of customary royal practice also draws attention to the exceptional cases within the biblical text, such as the regular appearance of the queen mother's name in Judean royal succession notices. The significance of this inclusion in connection to the promise of an everlasting house (2 Samuel 7) is discussed. The study considers whether royal women are viewed by the text as representatives of the faithfulness and continuity of this promised house or excluded from this arena of divine activity.
