Extending the analogy: church authority has been abused, boss-employee relationships have been abusive — should we abolish all authority structures?

Mike Winger idea 2022-03-14

Both egalitarians and complementarians agree that Genesis 1-3 is theologically foundational for understanding male-female relationships.

Establishing common ground between the two sides

Gen 1-3 Discovering Biblical Equality Mary Conway
Mike Winger idea 2022-03-14

The real point of 'leaving father and mother' is that the marriage relationship takes priority over the parental relationship.

Mike's interpretation of Genesis 2:24

Gen 2:24 marriage priority family unit
Mike Winger idea 2022-03-14

1 Timothy 2:12-13 as New Testament commentary on Genesis 2: Paul draws on Adam being formed first as relevant to male-female relationships.

Westfall on egalitarian and feminist claims about Galatians 3:28

Mike quotes Westfall's description of how egalitarians and feminists view the verse.

Galatians 3:28 Galatians 3:28 Cynthia Long Westfall Paul Jewett
Mike Winger idea 2022-06-20

Connection between critical theory terminology and egalitarian arguments

Mike notes the language of modern feminism and critical theory appearing in egalitarian scholarship.

presuppositions critical theory feminism
Mike Winger idea 2022-06-20

Westfall's expansion: men cannot have primogeniture status over women based on creation order

Mike critiques Westfall's application of Galatians 3:28 to inter-human relationships.

1 Timothy 1 Corinthians 7 Ephesians primogeniture 1 Timothy 1 Corinthians 7
Mike Winger idea 2022-06-20

Westfall's claim: Galatians indicates 'similar scope of change' needed in culture, social practices, and authority structure

Mike engages another broadening claim from Westfall.

Mike Winger idea 2022-08-15

Aristotle quote: 'the free man rules over the slave after another manner from that in which the man rules over the female'

Mike finds a decisive Aristotle quote that refutes the slavery-marriage parallel.

Aristotle Politics (Aristotle) different bases for authority
Mike Winger idea 2022-08-15

Key difference: slaves told to get free if possible; wives never told to escape marriage

Mike identifies the most decisive difference between the two relationships.

Mike provides the framework for understanding how image and role differences coexist.
