"How far is it possible, in the words of the Good News
Bible, ‘to use language that is natural, clear, simple, and unambiguous,’
when the Bible is not about things that are natural, clear, simple, and
unambiguous?"
Stephen Prickett,
Words and the word: language,
poetics, and biblical interpretation (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1986), 10, as
quoted by Benedict Ashley, O.P., “Gender and the priesthood of Christ: a theological reflection,” The Thomist: a speculative quarterly 57, no. 3 (July
1993): 345n5 (343-379).
