Listen "133 Is God a Misogynist? (Mary Willson)"
Episode Synopsis
Mary Willson, director of women’s initiatives for the Gospel Coalition, wrestles with a couple of the Old Testament texts that critics use to show that God hates women, including Deuteronomy 21.10-14 and Numbers 5.11-31. First she looks at how we perceive these ancient scriptures from the perspective of our own culture, then she shows how they functioned in their original historical contexts. She concludes that God gave these laws to protect women not oppress them.
