If you mean, his commentary and book, here is the bibliographic info:
Ben Witherington III. Women in the Earliest Churches. Society for New
Testament Studies Monograph Series 59. Cambridge: Cambridge University
Press, 1989.
Ben Witherington III. Conflict & Community in Corinth: A Socio-rhetorical
Commentary on 1 and 2 Corinthians. Grand Rapids: William B. Eerdmans
Publishing Company, 1995.
Someone mentioned in an earlier post about Witherington having pictures of
veils (?). Perhaps they meant in his commentary?
