Abstract
The Judeo-Christian tradition has helped to shape, legitimate, and even sacralize the model of family characteristic of the western world: the patriarchal family. Though the Judeo-Christian tradition neither created nor exclusively controlled the patriarchal family — which both predated it and was manifested in areas outside the influence of both Judaism and Christianity — neither did the Judeo-Christian tradition merely passively accept the patriarchal family, but instead made it central to the religious tradition itself, and even based religious structures on patriarchal assumptions.
