Even if this were true, it would no more support the ordination of women than the fact that Deborah held the status of prophetess and judge in the Old Testatment. If they are trying to use this to call for the ordination of women, they still have to get past Paul's writing in I Timothy.

I wonder what surprises liberal theologians and hostorians have up their sleeves. Will we one day learn that "Christ" was in fact "Christina," the daughter of God?

bahhh...

who cares what some pointy-headed academic 2,000 years after the fact hypothesizes? Certainly has no effect on what I believe.

Suffering here from what C.S. Lewis called "Chrisitianity and ...". That is, in this case, it's "Christianity and feminism" that the author here brings to the table. Her agenda is radical feminism, and she sees Christianity through that political ideology.

Academia struggles from a shoddy hermaneutic that colors all they see in the Bible. I find it fascinating that my car mechanic, with little formal education after high school, knows and can handle the Scriptures far, far better than this intellectual.

We've heard that Jesus was a homosexual before also. No limit to the attempts to "PC" the Bible.

2000 years from now, they'll be debating whether Hitlery was really the president, and there is far more evidence to support that position :o)
