Hi everyone!

In this episode (clocking in at over 90 minutes!!!) Nick and Allison are joined by Dr. Cynthia Long Westfall. Dr. Westfall is Associate Professor of New Testament at McMaster Divinity College and an expert in linguistics, discourse analysis, word studies, Hebrews, and Paul and gender. She joins us today to talk about 1 Timothy 2:12 and the specific verb that has caused a lot of controversy!

Dr. Westfall has written perhaps one of the best books on the topic of women in ministry, Paul and Gender. For those who are looking for in-depth exegetical and linguistic analysis, see her article on 1 Tim 2:12 here as well as her work on gender and hermeneutics in Priscilla Papers here.

In this episode, Nick and Allison answer a few more listener questions. Specifically, we talk about Junia in Romans 16:7, our hopes and dreams about raising our son in an egalitarian household and church, and how egalitarianism is winning the day in seminaries.

We also spend some time addressing a listener’s question about 1 Timothy 2:12. You also get to hear us take a break from geeking out to spend a moment with Nolan as he cries a bit. Don’t worry - he just wanted some snuggle time with mom.
