[quote=Anonymous]Jesus did not see women in any way inferior to men, but He understood the culture of the time. The first people He presented himself to were women; He told Martha that it was better for Mary to hear Him preach than work in the kitchen. As history is told by the victor, so too is the Bible told from the perspective of those who had most of the power when it was written, ie, men. Just as racist people used the verse "slaves obey your masters" to justify owning slaves, some men continue to use the "wives obey your husbands" verse to subjugate women, and of course, they often forget about the second part of the verse where it states for husband to love their wives as Christ loved the Church, ie, put the wife before their own needs. But, too many men don't follow that part but expect women to follow the first part. Typical.[/quote]
