The education view fails the 'reread test'

5 Views on “Women Keep Silent" (1 Cor 14_35-36): Women in Ministry part 11 01:57:16 – 01:58:22

Mike summarizes why the education view ultimately does not work.

The education view works well in isolation but breaks down when you reread the actual passage: women were highly educated in Christian theology by this point, only women are addressed (not uneducated men), women in every church are silenced, and the connection to submission is unexplained. Mike recommends the 'reread test' -- rereading the passage after absorbing an interpretation to see if it fits all elements.
