Well, for midterm week this past semester I came to the Huddle for some help on an essay question, your responses helped me get an A- on a paper worth 30% of my grade.

It is now finals week, and I am in need of some more essay help. This time, it is for my theology class. Since its such a specific topic, I figure anyone with some education in Theology or a profession in this field will be of some help.

I need to use evidence from the Gospel of Luke to explain, in a 3-5 page essay, the unique role of women the author presents to his readers.

Any help is greatly appreciated, and I look forward to hearing your responses.

Thank you!

Luke was a gospel written to appeal to a Roman audience (i can give proof if you need it). I'd research and see if the Romans viewed women as more of equals than the Jewish culture of that time (which i think they did). It could have been apart of the appeal.

Some theologians believe the gospel of Luke was written by a woman because of the differing status of women compared to the other gospels. Jesus seemed to have many women in his circle of friends. Only in Luke does an angel appear to Mary to tell her about her conception. 2 of the gospels don't cover Jesus' birth and the other has the angel appearing to Joseph.

Thats all I've got.

The Romans at the beginning of the principate (the empire) treated women very good in comparison to the rest of the world. Not nearly equals, but they had way more rights than any other woman from another culture.

      When we drafted Luke, we already had Cam, Smith, Olsen, Stewart, Deangleo, Gross, Kalil, CJ, Hardy, Beason, TD, Gamble (and maybe more I'm forgetting), we had a lot of great pieces in place. Going pure BPA for a player with Luke's potential when the LB you already have is different when you already have all those pieces in place.  Our OL right now is probably in a better shape than that team and our RBs and TE have potential compared to proven vets back then, but after that, the 2012 roster was in a far better shape than we are right now. We need a #1 WR, DEs, LBs, DBs, C, and depending who you ask a QB.  Going BPA at pick #5 when that player is a DT and your current best player on either side of the ball is a DT, seems irresponsible. If he's the only player they like that high left, then you trade back and go with position of more need at a slot that makes sense for the player while adding other picks.  If you trade back and he falls because other teams don't need/want a DT, then you consider him at that point because of the value.

      This sounds like the same back and forth when we drafted a LB when we already had a LB or as mentioned prior back to back DLs. I want the BPA, if it is another DT so be it. (No not a kicker/punter for those people that think they are funny))
