Description

A biblical defense of egalitarianism that relies on Scripture to affirm gender equality in the church and in the home. "Biblical womanhood" is the idea that the Bible teaches God-ordained male leadership and female submission in the home and subordination in the church. In The Bible vs. Biblical Womanhood, New Testament scholar Philip B. Payne argues that the very Bible passages often cited to support male headship and female subordination actually teach gender equality. Payne demonstrates that the Bible's message is one of equality, not hierarchy. The book examines 14 passages from the Old and New Testaments, using careful exploration of Greek and Hebrew word meanings, historical and cultural context, and examples from Scripture. Payne provides detailed answers to common objections at the end of each chapter. It is for readers seeking to reconcile the Bible's apparent tensions about man and woman and to gain greater confidence in Scripture's consistent, harmonious message of gender equality. by Philip B. Payne
