Interesting to hear about the wave of scholars reevaluating the authorship question on Colossians. I've always been unconvinced by the arguments that Paul didn't write it (for me, the common cast of characters in Philemon and Colossians and the uncontroversial view that Paul wrote Philemon seal the deal), but I didn't realize this was an increasingly widely-held view among scholars. The point in the household code about treating slaves with "equality" was also fascinating. So good! Thanks for doing this!
