Sexism

Picture
Just then his disciples came back. They marveled that he was talking with a woman, but no one said, “What do you seek?” or, “Why are you talking with her?” (Jn 4:27)
_Why didn't Jesus do anything about the sexual discrimination against women in the temple (concerning the Court of the Women)? This is especially strange because the OT makes no provision for this kind of segregation. Therefore, if Jesus had spoken out about this, the Jews would have had much cause to listen.
