Finally 1 Corinthians 14:34-35 makes sense!!! I'm so grateful the author took the time to explain this portion of Scripture, which has been interpreted by many as a ban on women preachers. The author provides a thorough examination of this beautiful letter from Paul to the church in Corinth, proving patterns of speech throughout its entirety, and debunking the notion that women cannot follow God's call to preach.This book highlights some of the amazing and miraculous work done by women in the Bible, whom I consider to be heroes who paved the way! There's not only Old Testament women (like Miriam, Hannah, & Deborah, etc.), but there's plenty of ladies mentioned throughout the New Testament as well, like Syntyche, Junia, Priscilla, and so many more! I feel that I now have a packed arsenal of Bible Heroes (both men and women) that I can now share with my children, nephews & nieces!!
