In "Interpolations in 1 Cor" (CBQ 48:81-94) Murphy-O'Connor rejected the egalitarian interpretation of 1 Cor 14:33b-36 argued by Odell-Scott in "Let the Women Speak In Church" (BTB 13:3) and re-asserted that the text is a post-Pauline interpolation. Odell-Scott argues that (1) Murphy-O'Connor's arguments that the text is an interpolation do not hold up under critical scrutiny, and that (2) the critical problems which the interpolation hypothesis attempts to solve are better resolved by the egalitarian interpretation.
