What must she do to be saved? A theological analysis of 1 Timothy 2:15 by Jared M August 2020
Paul asserts “the woman will be saved through the childbirth”. This essay asserts that this “woman” is Eve and that this “childbirth” is the birth of the Messiah. Although this interpretation is by no means new, the contribution of this essay rests in its proposal of the evidence for this view—namely, Paul’s use of the Adam/Christ contrast. This essay first analyses the grammar and context of 1 Timothy 2:15 to assert that a messianic reading of this passage is an exegetically viable option. Subsequently, each instance in which Adam is mentioned by name in the NT is examined (Luke 3:38; Rom 5:14[x2]; 1 Cor 15:22, 45[x2]; 1 Tim 2:13, 14; Jude 14), thereby proposing a pattern for when to expect Paul to develop the Adam/Christ contrast.
