Junia was a woman. The fact that people continue to debate this is crazy.
Greet Andronicus and Junia, my fellow countrymen and fellow prisoners. They are outstanding among the apostles, and they were in Christ before I was.
Romans 16:7
There is only one thing driving the idea that it should be Junias. It is the insistence that it must be a man to fit their paradigm of women not leading in the body of Christ.
If anyone jumped through these kinds of linguistic and mental gymnastics to prove something else that was so obvious, they would immediately be called out for handling the word of God with such little regard.
