Hi, it's me. I'll be peer-editing your article, Kristina! Mlic1995 (talk) 23:24, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

So, in regards you your Wiki article, I was wondering about the following questions: what about Mary's interactions with Jesus in the Bible? Didn't they interact? And in regards to Edith Hamilton's statement, I think it's just outright wrong. Like, I also think that this final sentence in the first paragraph needs a citation of some form or another.

Hi, Kristina! As promised I have a thoughts on "The Fall of Humanity", I hope they are helpful. One of the things that is important to consider in this section is the concept of original sin. Although the Anglican Church adhered to the notion that original sin came from Eve and thus the moral reason for patriarchal rule (The Authoritarian Family and Political Attitudes in 17th Century England by Gordon J. Schochet), a historical-grammatical analysis of later biblical texts revolving around this subject are much more ambivalent. For example, in Romans 5:12 it says that “sin entered the world through one man” (NIV). The “one man” in the Greek is henos anthrōpou. According to Strong’s Concordance, the latter is universal “without distinction of sex”. However, the concordance also notes that the Greek root ánthrōpos correlates most closely with the Hebrew ‘adam. In several translations Romans 5:12 directly attributes sin to Adam because of this correlation, however I posit that it is simply laying the fault of sin at either Adam or Eve’s feet as both were found at fault and the verse does not distinguish between the two. Also, which “English Bibles” omit that Adam was with her and therefore complicit in Eve’s sin? Every translation I’ve checked (NIV, NLT, ESV, BSB, NAS, KJV, HCS, ASV, DBT, DRB, ERV, GWT, and ISR) has had some reference to Adam being with Eve. If this “English Bible” is an older 17th Century Anglican version it should be noted. Joshuamichaeldavis (talk) 07:15, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Women in the Bible[edit]

@Krmmiller: Hi! I am Jenhawk777. I left you a message on the "Women in the Bible" talk page where you had demonstrated some interest.
