What you have written in this review and in your most recent substack post, reflect some very helpful thinking on the topic of what the bible teaches on these related topics (and sometimes, more importantly, what it clearly ISN"T teaching).
You have a real gift in thinking and communication, If you ever teach a class on 'thinking for the purpose of clear communication'; let me know; I'll be the first to sign up! You write well and what you write is helpful, valuable and edifying..
I do hope you have a book forthcoming that covers some of what you've learned through your scholarship.
Wondering how many of these points managed to slip past the editing stage? When it's dissected like this, the book's argument seems quite unfocused and sloppy. In any case, this was a fascinating review.
Actually, I’m very particular about sending my trade press writing for review by scholars before I publish. I made significant edits as a result. Since I’ve been being peer reviewed since my first article in 2006, I prefer to keep to high standards. I appreciate your thoughts and look forward to responding.
If housewives don't like vacuuming, maybe they would prefer climbing the ladder to patch the roof? Or mowing the lawn? Or sliding underneath the car to change the engine oil?

There’s a big difference between academic peer review and its lack in trade presses. It would not have slipped by peer review.

Bought you a book from the list - becoming a patron for the essay I want to read.

If there really was a patriarchy, women would fight wars, and men would be exempt.
This is a great review. I had some of the same thoughts and objections when reading "Making of Biblical Manhood and Womanhood."
