Mike Winger idea 2022-06-20

Peter's withdrawal was about soteriological status, not social discrimination broadly

Mike recontextualizes Galatians 2 to show it supports his reading, not Westfall's.

Galatians 2:11-16 Peter justification by faith Galatians 2:11-16
Mike Winger idea 2022-08-15

Titus 2 as test case: 'that the word of God may not be reviled' doesn't make things merely cultural

Mike provides extended analysis of whether evangelistic purpose equals cultural binding.

Titus 2:1-10 word of God not reviled Titus 2:1-10 cultural vs transcultural
Mike Winger idea 2022-03-28

Byrd claims Deborah's words about a woman getting the honor are not a rebuke — Barak wasn't after his own glory.

Byrd's spin on the shame element

Judges 5 Deborah Barak Aimee Byrd
Mike Winger idea 2022-03-28

The biblical context shows glory/credit goes to Jael (not God instead of Barak) — Barak gets one verse while Jael gets a whole section in Judges 5.

Proving the shame element is about Barak vs. Jael, not Barak vs. God

Judges 5:12 Judges 5:6 Judges 5:24-27 Barak Jael Judges 5:12
Mike Winger idea 2022-03-28

In their culture it was embarrassing that a woman beat Sisera — glory to Jael, shame to Barak — but this is not God's commentary against women leaders.

Mike Winger idea 2022-12-04

Introduction of 1 Corinthians 14:34-35 as a highly controversial passage

Mike reads the passage and acknowledges modern readers will find it offensive, but states his main concern is understanding what it actually means in context.
