This book has been an engaging read. I appreciate much of what Gupta communicates about the ministerial activity of women in the New Testament.
To a large degree I agree with his basic thrust: where men were doing ministry in the Apostolic era, women were there too.
Yet, there are some (in my estimation) exegetical and logical weaknesses in some recent chapters that weaken the work a bit.

So far, a really insightful read! Gupta has been on my "to-read" authors list for a while. This book is packed with information and pastoral tone. His emphasis and work is really helpful. Other than some exegetical differences here and there his message, aim, and work to this point has been superb. His work on the complexity of the Greco-Roman social classes and their impact on gender and society was fantastic.
