So much of modern biblical scholarship is like looking at your own reflection in a well. It is the imposition of modern ideologies on the text (snip snip) so that you get a Bible that looks like you. I prefer to just take it in it's literary and historical context and deal with the reality of the Bible as it actually is. It is good old fashioned classical Biblical scholarship.

OK, calling Paul a feminist is a genuine insult to feminists everywhere
