At the request of the speaker, the slides for this talk have been omitted.
Sandra Richter is Professor of Old Testament at Wesley Biblical Seminary and Affiliate Professor of Old Testament at Asbury Theological Seminary. She received her MA from Gordon-Conwell and her Ph.D. in Hebrew Bible from Harvard University's Near Eastern Language and Civilizations department. One of her particular contributions at Wesley and Asbury has been the creation of an Israel Studies program specializing in historical geography and archaeology. Dr. Richter has taught as an adjunct professor at Gordon College and Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, as an instructor at Harvard Divinity School, and as a teaching fellow at Harvard University. Her current research interests include ongoing work in the Book of Deuteronomy as well as the intersection between biblical law and contemporary environmental issues. Dr. Richter is a popular speaker in both academic and lay venues largely because she is uniquely gifted in bringing the technicalities of the Academy within the reach of the laity.
My family and I have been learning to farm a small bit of land in a semi-arid part of the middle east. We raise poultry, sheep, rabbits, trees and vegetables. What this professor says really resonates with me. Thank you for publishing this video. I personally submit my heart to the Lord God to teach me from His word, and He can use any willing vessel He wants to use, including an incredibly well-studied woman like this professor or one of my own three children. I believe that this posture of humility is what God is looking for in each of us. Anyone that won't listen for God's voice through a sister in the faith is missing out on great blessing, especially from a message like this. Again, God's Spirit teaches me through His servants, to His glory and praise He may use whoever and whatever He wants. He has even used our sheep, chickens and trees to teach us amazing lessons from His word!
One more thing: I have never heard a man speak about these things from the pulpit. This preaching is a sign and a witness that is meant to wake up men to take these issues seriously. As a small-time farmer I know that the Biblical principles that she brings up are right on. Will you and I listen to and put into practice the Biblical Principles that this anointed professor is highlighting, or hide behind verses that keep us from hearing God's heart?
My eye's were opened up on Do not muzzle the Ox while it is treading the grain! Our God is so amazingly considerate and merciful. I just got that meaning today. Thank you so much. Thank you Thank you 😊 🙏
She calls that winging it. Wow!
Excellent question from the man at minute 52. Even though the contemporaneously conditioned audience laughed at him.
Wow! That decimated my attitude towards animal farming. Thank you for challenging me so profoundly.
In Christ.
P.S. I am a complementarian. Not saying that to dissmiss this message at all but in contrast to the brother who commented before me. I know solid food when I hear it.
I live in Sweden where solid Biblical food like this is scarce. If this professor was teaching in a church near me, I'd be there to support it.
It's a secondary issue to me.
And Sandra's answer was also good. The questioner prior brought up the "individual" application of the Deuteronomic laws, like ,let's just do it on an individual basis. Both of these questioners are spot on.
My two cents.
This is the second time I've seen Sandra get interrupted by a technical malfunction. Frankly, I'd rather hear her "wing it" as she says at minute 15:35. When all she dies is look down and read from her prepared script it takes away from the substance of her excellent knowledge of her topic.
That's my two cents.
Paul talks about head coverings in 1 Cor 11:3, his reasonings are based upon the divine hierarchy in Gen 1:26.
Almighty God is first in status, rank, authority & power - then Christ over Man - then Man over Woman.
Our relationship one to another must reflect the authority of this divine order.
This isn’t her information she’s reading it from the work of others labor and by the way does she even have a right to be teaching according to the New Testament unless it’s children?
Here is the Will of the Lord!
"11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.
12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve. 14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.
1 Timothy 2:10-14 (KJV)
The corrupted and God-dishonoring "Devil and his angels" will do the very opposite as we plainly see in our above example.
Out of curiosity. Did you listen to the message? If so what did she actually say that belongs to the Devil and his angels?
@@BenClarkCEC
Irrispective of what she did or did not say, women are forbidden to teach men or usurp man's God given authority over women. And it is they who must remain in silence in religious matters in a public arena.
@@BenClarkCEC
She disobeyed the Will of God by preaching and teaching in a public arena, thus usurp man's authority in so doing.
"11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.
12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve. 14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression".
1 Timothy 2:10-14 (KJV)
@@earnestlycontendingforthef5332 so you didn't actually listen to it? Are you just looking for women preachers om CZcams and leaving comments?
@@earnestlycontendingforthef5332 I am actually a complementarian, believe it or not. I just can't understand why you would search it out just to leave comments at a person who has a different position on the subject. As if they were not aware of the Bible Text you quoted. It is not a gospel issue right? Or do you think it's a primary one?
