I take from your greeting that you may be Aussie?

I feel called to teach and am currently studying for my M DIV at bible college. We are really trying to seek common ground and praying the Lord will lead us forward into a unified position on the whole egalitarian/patriarchal debate. We both love God with all our hearts and want to walk in integrity in the things we believe he has shown us in his word. One of the sticking points for us right now is when Paul uses Gen 2 ("pre-Fall") to make his case in 1 tim 2:11-15 (cf also 1 cor 11:8-9) hubby feels that this is what makes his teaching regarding women not having (usurping?) authority or teaching men "transcultural." Do you have any thoughts/comments on this belief? I am doing a research paper at the moment on how Paul used Gen 1-3 in reference to his teaching on women (in the church or marriage), so any other comments regarding this topic would be very helpful.... If Paul uses Gen 2 to support a Patriarchal stance, should we therefore assume that he (God) is saying that this is God's ultimate way for all time? Gidday,
