Abstract (English): This paper aims to analyze the construction of Jezebel as a counter-model of the female ideal for Judeo-Christian culture using an interdisciplinary methodology based on reception studies of the Bible with a gender perspective, as well as an analysis of the visual culture from a cultural history perspective. To this end, a thorough analysis of the primary source, the Old Testament, will first be conducted in order to comment on the passages that explain the life of the Phoenician princess. Secondly, a brief overview of the reception of the biblical passages will be provided, both in some Judeo-Christian written sources of different chronologies and in Western visual culture. Next, two films will be analyzed in detail: "Jezebel," directed by William Wyler in 1938, and "The Sins of Jezebel," directed by Reginald Le Borg in 1953. Both will serve to highlight how the character of Jezebel has become an archetype of a highly sexualized woman who uses her beauty to conquer men. Finally, it is emphasized how the sexualization of Jezebel is the result of an incorrect interpretation of the term prostitute, and a call is made for a change in the current reception of the princess, in which it is desirable to portray her in her political and cultural role in the court of Samaria.

Abstract (Spanish): El presente artículo tiene como objetivo analizar la construcción de Jezabel como un contramodelo del ideal femenino para la cultura judeocristiana utilizando una metodología interdisciplinar basada en los estudios de recepción de la Biblia con perspectiva de género, así como el análisis de la cultura visual desde una perspectiva de la historia cultural. Para ello, en primer lugar, se realizará un análisis exhaustivo de la fuente primaria, el Antiguo Testamento, con el fin de comentar los pasajes en los que se explica la vida de la princesa fenicia. En segundo lugar, se ofrece un breve recorrido por la recepción de los pasajes bíblicos tanto en algunas fuentes escritas judeocristianas de distintas cronologías, así como de la cultura visual occidental. A continuación, se analizan en detalle dos películas: "Jezebel" dirigida por Willy Wilder en 1938 y "The sins of Jezebel" dirigida por Reginald le Borg en 1953. Ambas servirán para visibilizar como el personaje de Jezabel se ha convertido en arquetipo de mujer altamente sexualizada que utiliza su belleza para conquistar a los hombres. Finalmente, se recalca cómo la sexualización de Jezabel es fruto de una incorrecta interpretación del término prostituta y se reivindica el cambio de orientación en la recepción actual de la princesa, en la que es deseable mostrarla en su vertiente política y cultural en la corte de Samaria.
