“It is refreshing to read a book that tries to wrestle with what the text is saying, without cleverly domesticating it. This substantially updated edition needs to be read by all sides in the current controversy.”
-D. A. Carson, Research Professor of New Testament, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School

In breadth of coverage, thoroughness of learning, clarity of analysis and argument and, I think, soundness of judgment, this solid, lucid, pastorally angled treatise has no peer. Evangelicals who research, debate, teach, and counsel on gender, sex, marriage, and family will find it an endlessly useful resource. The easy mastery with which the author threads his way through forty years special pleadings gives this compendium landmark significance, and I recommend it highly.

But in the fullness of time (which is of course our time), Diversity rose up and smote orthodoxy hip and thigh. Now, praise be, the only heresy is orthodoxy. As widely and as unthinkingly accepted as this reconstruction is, it is historical nonsense: the emperor has no clothes. I am grateful to Andreas Köstenberger...
