Paul in Conflict with the Veil

Více o knize

The book critiques the misinterpretations of biblical teachings regarding gender roles, particularly in the context of prayer and veiling. Schirmacher contends that the Corinthians incorrectly believed that women must be veiled and men must not, and that wives exist solely for their husbands. Through an analysis of 1 Corinthians 11:10-16, he argues that veiling is not a divine command for all Christians. The author also explores irony and quotations in the text, alongside other New Testament references concerning women's attire and the dynamics of marital subordination.
