Priscilla and Aquila: six NT passages, Priscilla's name first in four of six

Women Leaders in the New Testament: Women in Ministry part 4 00:33:09 – 00:34:40

Mike transitions to examining Priscilla and Aquila, acknowledging complementarians sometimes don't look closely enough.

Priscilla and Aquila are mentioned in six passages. In four of the six, Priscilla's name is listed first, which was counter-cultural in that society where you wouldn't typically mention the wife before the husband. This suggests Priscilla may have been more prominent or well-known than Aquila to the believers, at least to Luke and Paul.
