Hi Lydia. Thanks for your comment regarding Chrysostom and authentein. This is very useful information that I have heard on blogs several times. A reference to verify this would be helpful. Did you read it in a book, or do you know where this information comes from? Thanks.
And yes, the idea that a woman (or some women) was teaching from a position of deception and thus spiritually murdering a man seems also a possibility. But if there was more than one woman involved we would still have to assume that for some reason, the women’s teaching was focused only on the men. Any ideas?
