Reddit reviews Man and Woman, One in Christ: An Exegetical and Theological Study of Paul's Letters

In Christian theology, there are two fields of thought in terms of marital 'roles'... Egalitarianism and Complementarianism. Unfortunately the egalitarian side is very very overshadowed by the more traditional 'complementarians'... probably fueled by a terrible understanding of passages in the Epistles.

If anyone is into Christian theology and want to study this stuff, I heard really great things about this book. It's definitely hefty so I haven't had a chance to read it yet, but it pretty much debunks the idea that complementarianism is the one and only way. It gave me a bit hope as someone who considers herself both a Christian and a feminist.

NT Wright is just as much a theologian as a biblical scholar, so his approach has been to avoid brushing away problematic passages as interpolations. Given this, he says that he hasn't made up his mind yet whether 1 Cor 14:33-35 is an interpolation or not, but he commends his listeners to study Gordon Fee's arguments for it being an interpolation and to make up one's own mind. The classical argument is laid out in Fee's The First Epistle to the Corinthians. Philip Payne wrote a short outline of his argument (beyond what he recently published on the distigme-obelos in Vaticanus) here, and the articles to which he refers there can be found here and here. His fuller argument is found in Man and Woman, One in Christ: An Exegetical and Theological Study of Paul's Letters, and you can actually read quite a bit of it in Amazon's Look Inside. While Fee and Payne are the top resources for this question, Straatman, Fitzer, Barrett and Ruef have also published on the subject. And I learned all of this in Intro to Paul with Harry Gamble lol
