Dear noelfitz,

Thank you so much for your note about this video. Please note that Gloria.tv did not produce this video and that I'm the one that assembled and posted it. I do understand your concern over Mr. Staples' use of the term "the woman" when referring to Galatians 4:4 and I appreciate you pointing this out. When I assembled the video I immediately had the same concern as you have, however I realized that Mr. Staples is simply making the connection between Genesis 3:15 and Revelation 12 … [More]

I am grateful to EJGCatholic and Thomasvalle for their contributions here.

I thoght that Mr Staples had misused Scripture in saying that in Gal 4:4 Paul said that Jesus was "born of the woman". I was upset when my post, now published, was initially rejected.

Now I see both my posts are here and Gloria.TV has been in contact with me.

I am very pleased and impressed that Gloria.TV has allowed a view contrary to one of its videos to be published. It shows honjesty, integrity and a commitment to … [More]

I sent a posting previously here, but it was not posted. I now send you a copy of an email I sent to the editore.

I would appreciate hearing from Gloria..

Dear Editor

Is there any way I could get a reply from you or contact Gloria.

Am I or Mt Staples in error? Is it important? Do you have a policy of … [More]

i too am unsure why MR Staples(who is awesome) has γυναικός GUNAIKOS, as 'The woman', but regardless thomasville, you certainly do make well done and beautiful definition videos.!

Hello noelfitz,
Technically you are right! But I doubt that Mr. Staples intended to misquote Sacred Scripture, but rather he was making the point that the woman in Galatians 4:4 is Mary, and thus she is mentioned in the New Testament in more ways than one. The video itself indeed quotes Scripture as "a woman", which I think should calm your concerns.

There is no doubt that we know that the Blessed Virgin Mary is "The" woman whom Paul is speaking about in Galatians 4:4. And Mr. Staples does a … [More]

I am disappointed with this video,as the question is not answered and scripture is incorrectly quoted.

In the video the claim is made that Gal 4:4 has "the woman" rather than "a woman". Then the bulk of the video is about seeing "the woman" as a title for Mary.

On the screen the text is shown as "a woman".

I have looked at about 30 translations of Gal 4:4 and most have "a woman", some have "woman", but not one has "the woman". The Greek NT (UBS 4th Ed.) has γυναικός (GUNAIKOS, gen … [More]
