New Thoughts from listening to the New Testement

How about listening to the New Testament read by wonderful voices.
Each book is read by a different actor including- 

John Gielgud, Derek Jacobi, Juliet Stevenson, Sheila Hancock, Timothy West and Thora Hird

Matt 1:19 Because Joseph was a righteous man and did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly.

How long was Joseph left to stew?  This must be the character building part of the relationship.  Sometimes we are left to stew.  Isn't this the training  required of us in this life. 

I note that the people Jesus heals seem all to have suffered for many year.  

In Mark Jesus feeds the 5000 in Chapter 6.  5 loaves and 2 fish.  And in chapter 8, the 4000 with 7 loaves.  Jesus discusses this later in chapter 8.  Was this different stories being mixed?  Why should it not happen more than once.  Perhaps it happened on other occasions?  Surely this is the first communion.

The Gospels and Acts are challenging, but present no real ethical dilemmas for modern society.  Romans goes straight into controversy.  Chapter 1 26-27.  These are strong negative judgemental sentiments that make me want to ask 'do you understand? or are you following the Torah's unambiguous teaching?  Anyone who knows loving gay couple can not recognise the sentiment in these verses.

1 Cor 11:3 starts by saying the head of 'Man' is Christ, and the head of woman is 'Man'.   Reason- Woman came out of man in the creation story.  This is hard to hear.  Modern science notes that the male gene is a corruption of the female gene, XY to XX.   The domination of the female gender is visible in many mammal species.  I think this ethological observation is amoral.  Human's live to a different law.  In verse 11 Paul introduces new thoughts offering a different perspective.  He notes that Man is born of Woman.  Is Paul taking a old 'Torah' teaching and nudging some balance into it.  No modern Christian believes Paul's teaching on head covering needs to followed.  Are we picking and choosing from our bible?  In chapter 10 Paul argues for liberalism.
