Read Bible with women's eyes, says Philippines theologian

The Bible needs to be re-read from the viewpoint of women so as to shatter "institutionalised patriarchy", which is reinforced by "conservative" biblical interpretation, says a leader of a group of women theologians, reports Ecumenical News International. "Many conservative Filipinos, both women and men, believe that women must submit to their husbands because a verse in the New Testament [Ephesians 5:22] says so," Maureen Loste of the Association of Women in Theology told Ecumenical News International. "But we must always read the whole historical context of the verse."
