Did Paul forbid a woman to exercise her leadership and teaching gifts, or was he dealing with a particular error in the church? \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAccording to \u003ci\u003eI Suffer Not a Woman\u003c\/i\u003e, Paul was reacting to a specific problem that was sweeping churches: a myth, taught mostly by women, which later became a foundation for gnosticism. This book offers an in-depth look at the Greek text of 1 Timothy 2:11-15 in the context of the Pastoral Epistles and in its historical context. By illuminating the first-century culture of Ephesus, the Kroegers shed light on the ancient world thought patterns Paul faced and offer a responsible alternative understanding of this much debated passage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRichard Clark Kroeger\u003c\/b\u003e is a retired pastor and college professor. \u003cb\u003eCatherine Clark Kroeger \u003c\/b\u003eis founder and president emerita of Christians for Biblical Equality and is an adjunct professor of classical and ministry studies at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary.
