Deborah was an awesome female leader of the country in the time of the judges rulership. Anna who prophesied over Jesus is another excellent example. scripture is full of female leadership. studying the scriptures aren't complete without the contextual reading from the culture of Jesus day. i highly recommend Kenneth Bailey's books to you and Joe Amaral's books and dvds, as you're doing academic studies. denominations have seriously kept women under wraps for farrr too long when Jesus explained God's heart toward all by raising us to equality. the end of ch.51 and beginning of Is.52 comes to mind as well as a further example. God is neither male nor female but both attributes are contained within and we are both,male & female, made in God's image. equal. your colleague raised excellent points and pursuing answers would be revelatory all around :)Faith Hope and Cherryteahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06170392449995588653noreply@blogger.com
