No one has been more maligned and misunderstood than Paul in regard to his views about women. In Paul, Women and Church, Dr. Eddie Hyatt shows that Paul treated women with respect, and he highlights the numerous positive relationships Paul had with women as friends, coworkers and even a spiritual mother. Hyatt also provides a hermeneutical approach to the difficult passages in Paul that demonstrate that Paul did not in any way restrict or limit the role of women in the church or home.
