I am completing an article on issues suggested by the differing
interpretations of 1 Cor by Richard Horsley and Neil Elliott, on the hand,
(a "political" interpretation), and Elisabeth Schuessler Fiorenza and Ann
Wire, on the other hand (a "feminist" interpretation). My sources are
articles by these four in the two volumes edited by Horsley (Paul and
Empire; Paul and Politics), as well as Elliott's Liberating Paul, Schuessler
Fiorenza's Rhetoric and Ethic, and Wire's The Corinthian Women Prophets. The
two interpretations differ significantly in their evaluation of Paul. I am
interested in any comments from members of the group about strengths and
weaknesses of these two positions.
