The Bible Got Women Wrong. Driscoll Just Agrees With It. (Dan McClellan and Dan Beecher; Data Over Dogma podcast on YouTube)

Mark Driscoll would like you to know that a strong wife is a blessing, an independent wife is a problem, and a woman is essentially a plot of raw land waiting for the right gardener to come along.

This week we take his statements apart line by line: the use of 1 Corinthians 11, the ancient household logic sitting underneath it, and the bride-price laws of Deuteronomy 22 that show exactly what "property" language has always meant. Then we head back to the Bible's actual garden, where it turns out there was never only one gardener.
