How can we determine if a text is sarcastic? Hmm, I'm afraid I'm not following this reasoning. What passages speak of Paul being a "champion of women in the church" that contradict 1 Tim 2:12? What indicates that "woman" shouldn't mean "woman" but "those who do not see clearly"? |

How can we determine if a text is sarcastic? @JonEricson: Yeah, I wasn't really thinking of it being affirmed or denied altogether, but what principles can be used to help determine whether something should be interpreted as sarcasm. |

How can we determine if a text is sarcastic? @JonEricson: Just that I've heard a lot of discussion of sarcasm in those two books and haven't really in others. |

What is the Sitz im Leben approach in Form Criticism? @Richard: Nope, just an attempt to get some slightly more technical hermeneutics questions up here. Feel free to edit. |

Exodus 6:3 - what is the significance of God's different names in the Tanakh? I've always heard that Yahweh (Jehovah) was the "covenant name" of God, emphasizing his relationship with Israel, where "God" is the more generic name for deity without any specific connotations. |

Translation of κοπιῶντες in Matthew 11:28 @jimreed: I suppose I was thinking about the difference between being weary (not necessarily from hard work) and laboring (but not necessarily being worn-out from it). |

What does the prohibition against women speaking in church in 1 Corinthians 14:34-35 mean? @LanceRoberts: I do see your point. I reworded the last sentence to be about author's intent instead of church application. |

What does the prohibition against women speaking in church in 1 Corinthians 14:34-35 mean? @LanceRoberts: It could definitely be approached from a theological perspective. Here though, I'm interested in the proper exegesis of the passage (considering its historical context) and the corresponding application. |
