Re: A Woman of Chayil: Far Above Rubies by Jane Carole Anderson
Just reading the outline of the book. I don't think men abuse women because of their Bible translations. Men will surely use these bible passages to justify, but changing the passages will not change their heart. I think it is a human problem and man "ruling over woman" was one of God's curses on Eve. It is a male vs female issue that transcends religious belief. The fact is there are men who abuse women. Some of these men are Christian, some are Muslim, some are atheist etc. I would think that in general Christian men, in general, are far kinder to women than non-Christian men (particularly Muslim etc).
