The New Testament [again, and notoriously, in the person of St Paul] assumes that there will be places other than the bedroom in which men and women assume consciously differentiated roles. They will do so in the affairs of the home, in which the wife is to "submit" to her husband (Eph. 5:22ff) as head. They will do so even outside the context of family life, since man is "head" of woman in some sense; in quite another context, when the Church is at worship (I Cor. 11:2ff). In order that St Paul should not be misjudged, we must note--(a) that this relational ordering of male and female presupposes a fundamental generic equality (I Cor. 11:1 ff); and (b) that the "submission" of the wife is a special case of a "submission" of all Christians to one another, and complements a husband's love that is to be expressed in self-sacrifice (Eph. 5:2lff, 25ff). The apostle is not an apologist for male tyranny.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6391</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that conceals his grief finds no remedy for it ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18323]]></link><description><![CDATA[He that conceals his grief finds no remedy for it]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18323</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What is laid down, ordered, factual is never enough to embrace the whole truth: life always spills over the rim ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59840]]></link><description><![CDATA[What is laid down, ordered, factual is never enough to embrace the whole truth: life always spills over the rim of every cup. -Boris Pasternak.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59840</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are aphorisms that, like airplanes, stay up only while they are in motion. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1975]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are aphorisms that, like airplanes, stay up only while they are in motion.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1975</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A loving heart is the truest wisdom. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63271]]></link><description><![CDATA[A loving heart is the truest wisdom.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63271</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When all candles be out, all cats be gray. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5333]]></link><description><![CDATA[When all candles be out, all cats be gray.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5333</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Presents at once?
