T. Wright is not at all convincing! We have no N.T. list of qualifications for women elders, and we read of no appointing of women elders. I shall restrain myself from commenting on the post-biblical historical origins of Anglicanism, ironically linked to one woman, rather than to biblical Christianity! No woman can assume the office of eldership and most men cannot, either! It would be far more honest to say that Paul teaches ... and I disagree ... than trying to make a case by eisegetical gymnastics of the worst kind. Ask T. Wright anything and the answer may be anything, but right!
