|  Ralph Woodrow, an evangelical Christian minister, is a correspondent of mine. He is a bit famous for formerly supporting Alexander Hislop’s thesis in The Two Babylon’s, but then repudiating his support in a follow-up book when he was challenged to check into the quality of Hislop’s scholarship, which he found quite lacking. He’s taken a lot of heat for that, but I believe he is being quite honest about it. He has written many short books which are edifying biblical studies and his latest is:  Must Women Be Silent in the Church? a biblical study regarding women in ministry.  He presents a good case that some of the ‘admonitions’ we suppose are from Paul seem to be quotations from letters sent to Paul [which have been lost] rather than actually Paul’s teachings and that, in fact, Paul did not agree with them. This the announcement of the book:  A biblical study regarding women in ministry  http://www.ralphwoodrow.org/assets/books/women-in-ministry.html  I personally have found many of his studies edifying. |
