Abstract

Feminism as an ideologically motivated movement sought to change the condition of women and to give them equal rights as men in legal, economic, political, religious, and social aspects. The issue of concern in this article is the way it has influenced Christian religion, the translation and interpretation of the Bible, and language, in general. Though the movement has had an impact on the English language use for one reason or another, it is not applicable to other languages, like Arabic, which does not share the linguistic structure of the English language
