Hi Christine,
The attitude of men to women is not unique to Judaism and that time frame. How about Islam, Muslim, etc.. If anything Jesus was the most loving and respectful to women of any spiritual Leader.
1. The woman caught in adultry, He sent her accusers away after asking them where her partner was and whoever was without sin could cast the first stone.
2. The prostitute that washed His feet with her tears and He forgave her even though the others were angry with Him for letting her touch Him.
3. Miriam and Martha were friends of His that He stayed with often.
4. There were women that supported His ministry .
The list could go on and on. What you see is not a reflection of His will for women but their will for themselves in oppression. Alan makes the final decisions when we disagree and I delight in waiting to say I TOLD YOU SO, with an angelic grin of course. However he would be offended by degrading of any woman as Jesus was.
In Pauls ministry he used many women that are mentioned even Lydia who had a factory making fine purle fabrics.
The Old Testament was a different time and again men choose to treat women as they did and it is not always a reflection of Gods will and besides there are many religions that treat women a lot worse than Judaism.
Good to communicate with you,
Nancy
