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.
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.
