发帖数: 734 | 1 "rather" has several meanings. You've seemed to have mixed up two of them.
from 梁實秋:
rather, adverb
1 寧可，寧願 "He would rather stay at home."
2 更合理，更恰當 "This is rather for your father to decide than for you."
3 更正確地說，更確實 "It was late Monday night or, rather, early Tuesday
morning."
4 頗，有幾分 "She felt rather tired."
5 反之，相反地 "The sick man is no better today; rather he is worse."
"had rather..." = "prefer to..." = 寧願。。。= 還是。。。的好
"I had rather dance than eat."
"would rather..." = "had rather", but mo... 阅读全帖 |

when something has surpassed your expectations you could use "rather".
so you could say something is "rather interesting", if originally you
thought it wouldn't be as much.

General Manager Jerry Jones says there’s no one he’d rather have to fix it
than defensive coordinator Monte Kiffin.
Jones indicated in an interview on 105.3 The Fan in Dallas that he still
believes in Kiffin, defensive line coach Rod Marinelli and the rest of the
Cowboys’ defensive staff.

actor in clips for "Dirty Sexy Money," a new drama about a wealthy,

The role wasn't exactly a stretch. Rather plays a reporter at a fancy dinner

发帖数: 14889 | 10 NEW YORK - Former CBS news anchor Dan Rather filed a $70 million lawsuit
Wednesday against the network, former corporate parent Viacom Inc., and
three of his former bosses.
Rather's complaint stems from "CBS' intentional mishandling" of the
aftermath of a discredited story about President George W. Bush's time
in the Texas Air National Guard.
The lawsuit, filed in State Supreme Court in Manhattan, also names CBS
President and CEO Leslie Moonves, Viacom chairman Sumner Redstone, and

broad hills; in the background still higher peaks rose far away in the clear

回应：
一、注意“长老”不是“老年人”可能是年轻人或中年人。请长老抹油祷告是很正常的
，任何相信圣经的教会都会有人相信并实践的。
二、我不清楚怎样解释‘“圣经”“新约”明确要求女人在教会要“闭口不言”’。
我不知道这个教导是不是绝对的，或“明确”。
例如，哥林多前书十一章，
4 凡男人祷告或是讲道（讲道或作说预言下同），若蒙着头，就羞辱自己的头。 5 凡
女人祷告或是讲道，若不蒙着头，就羞辱自己的头。因为这就如同剃了头发一样。 6
女人若不蒙着头，就该剪了头发。女人若以剪发剃发为羞愧，就该蒙着头。
这些经文意为，女人可以讲道（先知预言）只有蒙头（要不就剪头发）就可以了。与哥
林多前书十四章34-35节的教导有异。我没时间具体查原文希腊文怎么写的。
