Episode: Recorded live in San Antonio at the Little Rhein Prost Haus with Sandra Glahn, Dru and Erin discuss the cult of Artemis in Ephesus and the way it transforms our reading of key NT passages. Crucially, Glahn’s analysis of the Artemis cult helps us better understand Paul’s statement in 1 Tim 2:15 that the woman/women “will be saved through childbearing.” The event was co-sponsored by IVP, who publishes Dr. Glahn’s book Nobody’s Mother: Artemis of the Ephesians in Antiquity and the New Testament (2023). Thanks to all who came out live for this event!
