520 |a Tertullian was a brilliant author and defender of the faith in Roman North Africa during the early third century, but his views on women have not been equally wellreceived and often are dismissed entirely on the basis of a few statements. These statements, frequently taken out of context, have led many scholars to label him as the first Christian misogynist. However, Tertullian's views on women are far more nuanced than he is given credit for by most interpreters. Rather than hating women and demeaning them as individuals, Tertullian instead viewed them through a particular lens of his cultural context. This context does not excuse Tertullian entirely, but a charitable reading of his overall approach that examines Tertullian's comments concerning the inherent worth of women, beauty, and marriage reveals that Tertullian actually honored women who lived their lives fully dedicated to the Lord.
