Descrizione
Riepilogo:This article examines Paul's use of scriptural allusion in 1 Cor 11.7-12, highlighting underappreciated echoes of Zerubbabel's discourse in 1 Esdras 4.13-41. Paul puts Genesis 1, Genesis 2 and 1 Esdras 4 into conversation to support what may strike many today as a tension-fraught position. He assumes a patriarchal gender hierarchy (1 Cor 11.7-9) but also affirms woman's ‘authority' over her head, albeit tendentiously (11.10). Rather than resolving the resulting tension, Paul uses additional, counterbalancing allusions to redirect attention away from the question of status, towards recognition of interdependence ‘in the Lord' and shared origin in God (11.11-12).
