Well, for midterm week this past semester I came to the Huddle for some help on an essay question, your responses helped me get an A- on a paper worth 30% of my grade.

It is now finals week, and I am in need of some more essay help. This time, it is for my theology class. Since its such a specific topic, I figure anyone with some education in Theology or a profession in this field will be of some help.

I need to use evidence from the Gospel of Luke to explain, in a 3-5 page essay, the unique role of women the author presents to his readers.

Any help is greatly appreciated, and I look forward to hearing your responses.

Thank you!

Luke was a gospel written to appeal to a Roman audience (i can give proof if you need it). I'd research and see if the Romans viewed women as more of equals than the Jewish culture of that time (which i think they did). It could have been apart of the appeal.

Some theologians believe the gospel of Luke was written by a woman because of the differing status of women compared to the other gospels. Jesus seemed to have many women in his circle of friends. Only in Luke does an angel appear to Mary to tell her about her conception. 2 of the gospels don't cover Jesus' birth and the other has the angel appearing to Joseph.

Thats all I've got.

The Romans at the beginning of the principate (the empire) treated women very good in comparison to the rest of the world. Not nearly equals, but they had way more rights than any other woman from another culture.

      Who will blow it Sunday?

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      They are 1 and 9 against the  Bucs in the past 10 games. the Panthers go as young goes.  QB1 ‘s are suppose to dictate and overcome  and elevate Everything the QB does affects every part of the team and Bryce is uneven. Canales and Bryce have  an uneven relationship too  as for Evero, the only thing that might save him is the injury to Baker’s left shoulder and oline injuries. I don’t even know how he is out there   I really feel their season ended last Sunday Canales’ division record isn’t great   Getting owned by the Saints and Bucs isn’t a good look

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Jacabee · Posted

      Frankly surprised by the amount of people that want to hang Evero. This was a defense that was almost universally considered the bottom of the barrel before this season started. We’ve managed to stat our way to the middle of the pack whatever that means. Those critical of the zone schemes, what do you want? When even JC is getting burnt one on one by Olave you have little choice. There definitely have been moments where the zone blitz stuff has bit us. That said, are the third string linebackers (and nick Scott) covering poo anyway? This unit had only conceded 10 points going into the fourth quarter despite a litany of bullshit penalties on both sides. Them over performing is the biggest reason we are still in playoff contention.
