Has a new speech by the Bible’s ‘Eve’ been found?
<p>When I first read it, I was sure startled. I read his 2004 <a href="https://www.scribd.com/document/669401243/Austin-Busch-The-Figure-of-Eve-in-Romans-7-5-25-2004" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">paper</a> that laid out his case, and I read later scholars <a href="https://www.jstor.org/stable/10.15699/jbl.1373.2018.404010" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">discussing</a> it. There didn’t seem to be any discussion outside Bible scholarship.</p>
<p>I’ll try to explain the issues, starting from the beginning.</p>
<p>The book of Romans is a long letter by the apostle Paul. He goes on and on, and it’s all him speaking. That’s how it’s read.</p>
<p>But at verse 7:5, rather weirdly, a different voice seems to intrude. There’s odd talk of having “bore fruit for death.” Was that Paul?</p>
