Zens compares the patriarchy taught to families by the Roman
Catholic and Dutch Reformed churches in Holland with an aggressive
patriarchal wing of the home-schooling movement in America to show
that the earmarks of patriarchy doctrine result in varying levels
of abuse of young girls and wives.
1 Timothy 2:11-12 has been used as a "clear" mandate to silence
women in the church for over 1500 years. In What's With Paul &
Women? Jon Zens exposes the fallacies of this interpretation, and
opens up the meaning of 1 Timothy 2:9-15 using insights gleaned
from the Artemis-saturated Ephesian culture where Timothy was left
to stand against false teaching (1:3). Going beyond 1 Timothy 2,
this book covers the major issues in gender inequality with three
Appendices: one on the Ephesian social world in which 1 Timothy was
written, another on 1 Corinthians 14:34-36 and an extensive review
of John Piper's What's the Difference? Manhood & Womanhood
Defined According to the Bible. If 1 Timothy 2:11-12 and 1
Corinthians 14:34-36 have puzzled you, What's With Paul &
Women? will help in your quest to discern the mind of the Lord as
the gender debate continues.
