In this comprehensive and scholarly book, Dr. James Hurley guides us carefully through the biblical material relating to the roles of men and women, helping us to understand difficult passages of Scripture. He looks at the woman's position in Old and New Testament times, and at the revolutionary attitudes which Jesus brought. He brings together material from the life and teaching of the apostolic church to give a detailed picture of the position of men and women in Christian homes, in worship and in church office. And he does not hesitate to draw conclusions for the life of the Christian community today. - Back cover.
