RE: Oh - Luke is okay - just Paul and all of that stuff about women being silent, wearing hats, etc

But Luke wrote the book of Acts, which details Jesus’ commissioning of Saul, who changed his name to Paul, who then brought the gospel to the gentiles.

If “Luke is Okay” in the book of Acts, then Jesus’ commissioning of Paul should be Okay too, and by extension, Paul’s teaching should be Jesus’ teachings.

Jesus did not change Saul’s name to Paul.

Some believe that Paul was just the Roman/Latin equivalent of Saul, but the Bible gives us no explanation as to why two different names are used.

Maybe I am misreading your post.
