“I think it would be a good idea at some point to cover the issue of a woman’s “covering” to see where these groups get such an idea and why it is unbiblical. When I am not so busy, I would like to work around that one.”

That would be great, Cheryl, and I will wait with great anticipation for that. I have been working on an Genesis 2/Ephesians 5 marriage model for about a year now. As I fiddle with certain terminology to convey certain ideas, on term I came up with for the positive masculine contribution to marriage was “covering strength”. I will look forward to your ideas on “covering” to see if it you find it universally unbiblical in regards to men or only unbiblical in the way that complimentarians are using it. (I especially am curious about your take on Ezekirl 16:8 and God’s “covering” of Jerusalem in a clear metaphor for marriage). I know it is a little OT here, but I am glad it is on your list for future commentary.
