This text is about both the fear of gender reversal and its expression, in the prophet Ezekiel’s reworking of the marital metaphor. The author argues that the abomination of wife Jerusalem is that she is attempting to pass for a male, thereby crossing gender boundaries and upsetting the world order. This story is therefore one of confused gender scripts, ensuing chaos and a re-ordering through the reinforcement of these strictly defined prescriptions of gendered behaviour. Using socio-historical evidence and the existence of the literary motif of men turning into women as a framework, this book argues that Ezekiel 16, in particular, reflects the gender chaos that arises as an aftermath of social and theological crises.

This short story has a good scary aspect and descriptions but at times those descriptions falters and drags.

The plot itself for this short story has a good premise and reminds me of H.P Lovecraft’s stories, but done in a worse way than what H.P Lovecraft’s stories.

This short story has the same issue as some of the other Washington Irving’s short stories which is that the pacing of the short story is very uneven. Since it changes as the short story continues.

The theme of this short story has a unique premise for the plot, but the way the narrator presents the plot makes the whole short story feel very flat and have the feeling like the narrator lacks the depth of the story presented in this short story.

The pacing in this show short is very uneven, since at times its going fast and other times its going very slow. 

The characters in this short story feel very dreadfully dull and like they don’t have a lot of personality other than being character in a short story.

At the same time the author tries to put humor in this short story, but the problem with that, is that the humor feels very forced in this short story which doesn’t work as the author wanted it to work.
