Barnes, Nathan. "Reading 1 Corinthians with Philosophically Educated Women," Brite Divinity School, Texas Christian University, 2010.
This dissertation will engage the question “what is the substance of the philosophical teachings that women may have known in the Pauline communities of the Greek East, and how does this knowledge inform their understanding of 1 Corinthians?” I will argue that the involvement of women in philosophy indicates that women in the Corinthian church could have the philosophical background required to interact with several teachings in 1 Corinthians which are already located in Greco-Roman philosophy: friendship and patronage, the ideal teacher and Paul’s apostleship; self-sufficiency and the agon motif; and teachings concerning marriage and family that Paul applies to worship regulations.
