Strange Religion by Nijay K. Gupta
"This was interesting in places and I really enjoyed the cultural background of 1st century Roman empire, which is why I read it to begin with. However, I had major objections to his tone and some of his claims.

“Deborah is an important answer to the question “Can a woman . . . ?” or “Is a woman allowed to . . . ?” Deborah could. Deborah was. God was behind it; he filled her with prophetic wisdom, and her sung words became part of the Word of God, testifying to the brave and wise woman who brought God’s peace to a troubled people.”
Nijay K. Gupta, Tell Her Story: How Women Led, Taught, and Ministered in the Early Church

“Prayer is no sedentary, cerebral, or even safe activity in the eyes of Jesus or the mind of Luke. Rather prayer is those sturdy, audacious, perhaps even outrageous acts that go by the name of faith.”
Nijay K. Gupta, Paul and the Language of Faith

“In our modern minds, we quickly jump to her having a string of divorces and is now shacking up with yet another man. But another scenario is possible, even more probable. Her husbands have died, not that uncommon in a world with high mortality, and she very well could be living with her brother or another male relative. In that case, Jesus was not calling her out on her promiscuity; he was attentive to her hard life.”
