The truth is that, having said earlier that Hypatia was the victim, among other things, a male bigotry, anyone who has seen the film Amenábar or have researched a little about the character and his times easily reach the conclusion that the male bigotry is none other than that of a Judeo-Christianity triumphant, strongly patriarchal sign that God is Father as parents are saints-and single-male lead and have led to herds in the Church.
As if that was not clear that this faction of Christianity triumphant is men-as decía un viejo anuncio del brandy Soberano -, en la película se cita, como detonante de la muerte de Hipatia, una de las epístolas misóginas atribuidas a San Pablo: I Timoteo 2, 11-15:
Mulier in silentio discat cum omne subiectione. Docere autem mulierem non permitto, neque dominari in virum, sed esse in silentio. Adam enim primus formatus est, deinde Eva. Et Adam non est seductus, mulier autem seducta in praevaricatione fuit. Salvabitur autem per filiorum generationem, si permanserit in fide et dilectione et sanctificatione cum sobrietate.
"La mujer, en silencio, aprenda con toda sumisión. No permito que la mujer enseñe ni que domine al hombre, but keep silent. For Adam was formed first and Eve second. And Adam was not deceived but the woman who seduced, was in the transgression. However, be saved by childbearing, while modestly persevere in faith, in charity and holiness. "
Take that! After read such a text, I feel like photocopying the bar cronies the corner, still unaware of the e-mail and forwarding garbage, "and toast with a San Pablo Farias and a glass of Sovereign , as God intended ...
Joking aside, and despite that, Unfortunately, this has been the triumphant faction Christianity, in large part responsible for the macho stereotype to this day, just enough, stop and consider the following:
1 º. This show of machismo in any way be attributed to Jesus, if we look at the evidence-both canonical and apocryphal, that we have reached on his life and works
2 º. Is attributed to Paul, who, albeit the most influential writers in Christianity, we should remember that Jesus did not know .
3 ° But it does not even seem to be words of Paul, because experts say the letters I and II Timothy (as well as Colossians Ephesians and ) are "deuteropaulinas" that is, after Paul and written by authors long after (perhaps an ancestor of Rouco Varela?) Interested in countering the prestige enjoyed by women in some circles and in some apocryphal writings of the Gnostics called, as, indeed, in several passages of the canonical Gospels that immediately comment. Authors as little suspected of heterodoxy and Jose Maria Bover and Joseph O'Callaghan, responsible for the critical edition of the New Testament TRILINGUAL [Greek, Latin, Castilian] in the Library of Christian Authors (1977), in line with the passage of Timothy suggest in a note following (I can not resist quoting-to underline and bold - even at the risk of moving from my usual speech-brick written directly to concrete):
"This passage is a remarkable coincidence, the theme, not orientation, something that San Epifanio said of the sect of the Priscillianists or Quintilian (something like the far left movement mountaineer): "They attribute the founding of their sect Quintiles and Priscilla ... Resort to various authorities very frivolous. Claim that the fact of having been the first to eat the fruit of science has been a great privilege to Eva ... Often including seven virgins dressed in white and carrying torches are presented before the people in the church to utter oracles. Grip of a kind of enthusiasm in front of the audience made exhibits to bring to tears to be considered as a fruit of penance. These women are bishops, priests and supports them to other grades . You have no account of sex under the pre text that ¬ (Gal 3.28) "in Christ there is neither male nor female" (Panarion XLIX, 2). In the passage in 1 Tim 2.11 to 14 all that is unauthorized feminist bent, also citing Genesis, but look different under another. "This is a repudiation in advance or a subsequent disavowal, in which case this piece belong to the dispute or controversy antimontanista? (Cf. H. Delafosse, Les écrits de S. Paul [Paris 1928] IV. "Les Épîtres pastoral).
Priscillianists
on those red and feminist talk another day. As well as on Prisciliano, who was also a feminist and woman, perhaps his wife, who traveled alone from Bierzo to Egypt and Jerusalem at the time of Hypatia (And if they had known ...? Good story for a script ...)
In any event, won the misogyny, yes, but what was the original message, as primary sources? What did they say those other Gnostic texts? But above all, what was the attitude of Jesus with regard to women, as even the Gospels clearly show that were considered as canonical?
A show and comment on these canonical texts devoted precisely the interesting article in 1971 wrote Leonard Swidler, soon to comment, to which I owe the title of this post: Jesus was a feminist . Continued ...
