Translations and Gender, Part II w/ Beth Allison Barr and Scot McKnight

Text us your questions!Our first discussion with Beth Allison Barr and Scot McKnight at the end of Season 1 was so popular and helpful that they wanted to come back a second time to answer more questions about biblical translations, gender, and bias. We cover the editing process, translation committees, trusting the right experts, different translation styles, why translations aren't more diverse, what Beth and Scot are up to next, and more. These two obviously enjoy one another and have a great time talking through the complexities of how translations come together, what purposes they serve, and what makes a good one. Hint: the ESV isn't their favorite.Some of the works mentioned in the conversation are:"The Desire of the Woman: A Response to Susan Foh's Interpretation" - Rachel Green Miller"Losing Our (Medieval) Religion? The Cost of Not Teaching History…" - Beth Allison Barr"A Pastor’s Quick Guide to Reliable Historical Research" - Beth Allison Barr"Ideas about Women Matter: A Resource List for Women in Church History" - Beth Allison BarrStony the Road We Trod: African American Biblical InterpretationAbuelita Faith: What Women on the Margins Teach Us about Wisdom, Persistence, and Strength - Kat ArmasWomanist Midrash: A Reintroduction to the Women of the Torah and the Throne - Wilda C.
