241 | What?!? | 1 Tim 2:14 | djconklin | 29963 | ||
Tim, I wouldn't say that "help-meet" implies inferiority in any sense of the word. It interesting to note, as you have, that the same word to describe Eve is also used to describe God. I think I can agree with you summation; I just wish that Paul; had been more clear. From what I have read by many scholars when they looked at this verse and its surrrounding context they were certainly confused and gave very unclear counsel in regards to it all. |

242 | What?!? | 1 Tim 2:14 | djconklin | 30074 | ||
Tim, I must confess that since I have put some more thought into it I'm going to have to back off accepting your version of what is being said. This is because it basically ignores what the text says. Paul's point seems to be on who knew what when being tempted. BTW, thanks for the kind spirit of your responses--it is a real breath of fresh air! |

"Semantics holds a major key to one's ability to extract proper meaning from the written word. In no other body of writing that I can think of is this more important than in Scripture." Well put Hank! |

Interesting points Nolan. However, whenever Paul uses the word "sozo" it always refers to salvation from sin. So, contrary to the speculations in the note in the Disciples Bible this verse does say that women will be saved through child-bearing. So, what does Paul mean here? As a side-note it was interesting to see how quickly the traditionalists dealt with this verse(if at all!). |

Robert, Thanks for the quick and kind response! If Paul had meant "preserved" then he could have used the word "zoogoneo" as in Luke 17:33 or "suntereo" as in Matt. 9:17 or Luke 5:38. The only time where I can find that the word "sozo" "means" preserve is in 2 Tim 4:18 and even there it is talking about ultimate preservation: "And the Lord shall deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve me unto his heavenly kingdom ..." and not about preservation frompain in this world. --- The word "teknogonia" means "childbearing"; it has no other meaning. Again, thanks for your kind response. |

"In a prior verse, you cited Galatians 3:28 as saying that there is no distinction between men and women in Christ.. If that is so, and if women are saved through child-bearing (by use of the Greek word "sozo"), then are men condemned to hell because they cannot bear children???" Nolan, I didn't say any such thing. Please re-read the post more carefully. BTW, I made the same point in a sermon. |

I'm still not sure Nolan (it has been a couple of years since I looked at this topic in some depth--see the bibliography on my web page). I do know that I haven't seen any convincing explanation as of yet. It seems to me that one cannot really do justice to vs 12 until one can adequately explain both vss 14 and 15--something the traditionalists have yet to do (I really get suspicious when people try to change the words from what God's chosen vessels have writen). | ||||||

Not yet; still tossing it around in my mind. Maybe all the reading I did wasn't enough? | ||||||

An exegesis is the proper way (i.e., it is analytical, and thorough and doesn't jump to conclusions) to study the Bible so as to uncover what the message of God in the text is to man. For links on how to do an exegesis and samples of the same goto http://biblestudy.iwarp.com | ||||||

"When the uninformed dissenters wax skeptical of the truth of Scripture, they invariably cite the "two" accounts of creation and Noah's flood, about neither of which are they likely to be able to produce an ounce of proof to justify their ton of doubt" Amen, Hank! "I have seen on this very forum page after page of exegesis -- an adultered application of the true meaning of the word .." An exegesis couldn't do such a thing; what you saw was eisegesis (reading meaning into the text) |

"Yale divinity school grads on this forum? Heaven forbid! In the history of the forum many have trotted out their educational credentials -- the names and the number of schools attended, degrees earned, how many times they've been published, awards they've won, etc. -- in an effort to convince the rest of us "dummies" of the superiority of their great learning. So far, the only ones they've succeeded in convincing are themselves." I can't speak for what happened in the past on this forum however if you look closely at those who led Christianity down through the ages you'll find that they were quite well-educated (for instance, Paul, Luther, Melancthon, Calvin, Wesley) and I would suggest for good reason for most of the heretics who mis-led were not educated and believed their own lies (as a recent example witness David Koresh). |

Hehehhe. "the two "conflicting" accounts of the creation." I believe it was K. A. Kitchen who showed that in Ancient Orient Texts (title of his book) it was not uncommon for them to give a second "account" in which some selected feature of the "first" was looked at in more depth, etc.. |

Joe, Good thing I didn't say that it was an exegesis, eh? There's a lot of nonsense out on the web. Some of which most people don't even note. The more it is exposed the less likely it will infect others. Thanks for your remarks. |
