In the ancient world a woman's place differed than the place of a modern woman. Women in the ancient world were not seen by all as equal to men in every way. The life of women in the ancient world was much different than that of their male counterparts. Women in the ancient world were seen as the lesser to men. Women were not given the same rights in politics, legal matters, and religion. In the Hebrew religion a woman's place can be viewed by the tales of the women in the Old Testament. The first woman in the Old Testament is Eve; Eve is seen as the source of Original sin. Other accounts of women enlighten this negative view of women. Sarah, Abraham's wife, is depicted as having little faith in God, since she doubts that she at her age could bear children. Thus the Hebrews viewed women as man's lesser counter part. An early Christian evangelist, St. Paul, enlightens the fact that women and men are equal through Christ. Yet many argue that St. Paul's writings actually subordinate women to men.
First, St. Paul's writings enlighten the fact that women and men are equal. In St. Paul's letters to the Galatians and Corinthians Paul argues that everyone is equal in the eyes of God. St. Paul writes," There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for you are all one in Christ Jesus" (161). St. Paul believed that not only women and men were equal in Christ but also gentiles and Jewish converts were equal in Christ. St. Paul also addresses Women and men equally when he discusses their responsibilities in the area of marriage. St. Paul writes," The wife has no power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband has not power of his own body, but the wife" (161). St. Paul addresses both the women and the men when talking about marriage. Thus, St. Paul's writings enlighten the fact that women and men are equal.
Yet, many argue that St. Paul's writings actually subordinate women to men.
