‘Better Than I Ever Was’: ‘Not Enslaved’ as a Higher Status in 1 Corinthians 7.15
In 1 Cor. 7.15 the believer is not bound when the non-Christ-believer insists on divorce. What is often overlooked is that Paul neither employs δέω/‘bound’ as in 1 Cor. 7.39 nor claims a spouse’s ‘freedom’/‘permission’ to remarry, a defining feature of contemporary divorce certificates. Also overlooked is the discussion of slavery and freedom that follows. The most suitable backdrop for 7.15’s ‘not enslaved’ (δεδούλωται) is not likely the slave w…
The Mahimā of Ājali Āi and the Persecuted Māyāmārā Śatra: Guru-Mā as Holy Patroness and Divine Mother
Every year around 200,000 Māyāmārā Vaiṣṇavas congregate in a small village in Mājulī, Assam, India, for the annual śevā, or worship service, to Ājali Āi, a 16th-century female figure.

Paul of Tarshish: Isaiah 66.19 and the Spanish Mission of Romans 15.24, 28
Interpreters of Paul's Letter to the Romans frequently identify preparations for the Spanish mission—mentioned within only two verses at the end of the letter—as the primary reason for writing. Paul's extensive use of Isaiah suggests to some that he viewed Spain as the fulfillment of the reference to ‘Tarshish’ in Isa 66.19. The Hebrew Bible, however, does not provide any evidence that Tarshish is in Spain rather than in Cilicia. Evidence is lack…
