[edit] Regarding "There are no women in heaven"
As much as I'd love for that claim to be valid, the word used in Luke 20:35-36 for "sons" is the Greek word "huioi", which can also refer to a mix of sons and daughters, which is why most translations say "children" instead of "sons".
Galatians 3:26-28 is one example of where "huioi" refers to a mix of sons and daughters:
26 You are all [huioi] of God through faith in Christ Jesus, 27 for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dtfinch (talk • contribs) 06:54, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Eve from Adam's rib
I'm sure that the interpretation of Eve being made from Adam's as an indication of women's subordination is not the only interpretation of the passage. I think that it is also thought to show equality between sexes as they are made from the same flesh. Does anyone know any more about this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Variousvarious (talk • contribs) 09:40, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Deborah Dis'd
As much as the judge Deborah wanted the glory for the battle she did not get it. Boo Hoo. In Hebrews Chpt 11 the great faith hall of fame it was Barak that got the glory. Her feminist pride cost her the glory......LoL...Rofl —Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.88.222.103 (talk) 02:06, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
