In this short but comprehensive audiobook, Elgin Hushbeck, Jr. tackles one of the most disputed passages in the New Testament—Ephesians 5—and its discussion on marriage. On the one hand, this passage tends to scandalize some liberals, and, on the other, gets interpreted in a very patriarchal way by some conservatives. Hushbeck puts this passage into its literary and historical context to see what Paul was saying to his immediate audience, and how that message can apply to modern Christians. His clear exposition of structural and rhetorical factors is especially helpful.
