Josey Bridges Snyder explores how early Jewish, Christian, and Islamic interpreters wrestled with the story of Lot's nameless and speechless wife who was transformed into a pillar of salt. Through a close analysis of Second Temple literature, early rabbinic midrash, early Christian writings, and Islamic tradition, Snyder traces how interpreters filled the silences of her story, revealing more about their own cultural and theological worlds than about Lot's wife herself. This book uncovers new insights into the ancient text and its many readers.
