This article analyses the discourse on female procreating nature as reflected in Biblical Hebrew. Adopting a gender perspective and using a philological method, I study an array of roots (ל''ד', שכ''ל, עק''ר) and one idiomatic expression (-ל''ד על ברכ') which are objects of scholarly debate and which were employed to describe – and prescribe– the reproductive role of Israelite women. The naming of motherhood, its absence and the resort to slave exploitation as a way to end childlessness are the topics which this piece of research aims to address. Special attention is drawn to the semantics of the lexema עקרה, where I discuss its conventional rendering as “barren” and make a proposal which, albeit not completely new, has never been thoroughly justified |
