Patriarchy and BIBLICAL Manhood - A discussion with Carolyn Custis James

from Disciple Dojo · host JM Smith

Years ago I read the book "The Gospel of Ruth" and was blown away by how good of a study it was on an often-misread or overlooked book tucked away in the Hebrew Bible. So when Carolyn agreed to step into the Dojo for a discussion, I was thrilled to have her! For those who are meeting her for the first time, Carolyn Custis James is an author, speaker, and adjunct faculty member at Missio Seminary in Philadelphia. She is a consulting editor for Zondervan’s Exegetical Commentary Series on the New Testament and in 2013, Christianity Today named her one of the 50 evangelical women to watch. She can be reached via her website at https://carolyncustisjames.com or on Twitter at @carolynezer Timestamps: 00:00:00 - Intro 00:01:56 - Carolyn & Wonder Woman 00:03:29 - The best book on Ruth I've ever read 00:05:38 - Put some respect on Boaz's name 00:09:06 - Ruth and female initiative in leadership 00:12:37 - Patriarchy in the Biblical world 00:18:29 - How Christians misread the book of Ruth 00:33:04 - The Law as an opportunity for "hesed" 00:39:48 - Finding God in the Margins 00:43:20 - Mistranslating the Hebrew term 'Ezer 00:52:21 - One of the funniest texts in the Bible 00:54:12 - "Malestrom" as a Biblical response to patriarchy 01:01:51 - "Patriarchy" as a controversial culture war term 01:05:22 - "Mandalorian vs. She-Hulk" - Pop-feminism and denigrating men 01:17:53 - Reading the Bible with our cultural blindspots 01:25:59 - How does Carolyn respond to Complementarian views on "benevolent patriarchy"? 01:29:09 - Trump's Access Hollywood interview and various Christian leaders' responses 01:33:28 - Living as Christians with political disagreements 01:36:25 - "I do not permit a woman to teach..." - Thoughts on 1Timothy 2 01:45:06 - What does "dressing modestly" ACTUALLY refer to? 01:50:09 - Gender, patriarchy, and Bible translations 01:53:22 - Carolyn's thoughts on the ESV 01:59:46 - How to contact Carolyn 02:00:48 - The purpose of these "Dojo Discussion" episodes
