    Denny, I have looked at your review of Padgett’s book in this issue of JBMW. Unfortunately your Evaluation does not get off to a good start because you misquote both Lincoln and Delling and your reference to Delling is wrong. Is focussing on individual words a good way to argue against Padgett anyway? Especially since Eph 5:21 does say “Submit to one another”?

    It seems that the actual Delling quote adds some qualifiers that means Denny took the quote he used out of context, regardless of what conclusion Delling reaches in his study. I have detected such methods in Grudem also.

      Don, have you read the Delling article? The actual words from Delling’s article speak of “required subjection of wife to husband” according to a “divinely willed order.” I don’t think a fair reading of the Delling article would yield the conclusion that I’ve misrepresented him.

        Hi Denny,

        I do not have TDNT and so have not read Delling on hupotasso. I would be willing to do so and am trying to get a friend to get the info for me. You have my email if you want to send it. I am a learner.

        My claim is that to extract text from its immediate context is not good practice when the word following the quoted text is “but…” and the word before the extracted quote is a qualifier on the scope of the claim on the extracted text.

        As an egal, I agree that a (believing) wife has a required subjection to her husband, I just also believe a (believing) husband has a required subjection to his wife.
