The Bible is terrible fully in context. People pretend that the context explains all the stupid and abusive stuff because it feels nice to avoid arguments with well-meaning religious people. There isn’t context that fixes that Timothy quote, there are evolutions and rationalizations to try to sand off the rough edges so the religious institutions can keep trundling along while secular morality rightfully moves beyond it.
Interprets select, out of context, quotes.
