Women of the Bible by Dikla Laor

July 29, 2021

The new edition of Women of the Bible by author and pho- tographer Dikla Laor combines photography and midrash to reimagine the lives of biblical women. Laor’s photos place our matriarchs at the center

of their own stories, affirming their central role in the foundational text of our tradition. Take a look at her photos here: diklalaor.photography.

Three women gather in a meadow
a woman surrounded by sheep
two women sit and hold hands while gazing each other.

Independent, jewish & frankly feminist

Since 1976, Lilith magazine charts Jewish women’s lives with exuberance, rigor, affection, subversion and style.
