God-fearing husband’s left without theology degree, strangely (5)
I believe the answer is:
oddly
'strangely' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'god-fearing husband's left without theology degree' is the wordplay.
'god-fearing' becomes 'holy'.
'husband' becomes 'h'.
'left' is a deletion indicator.
'without' is an insertion indicator ('without' can be similar in meaning to 'outside').
'theology degree' becomes 'DD' (Doctor of Divinity degree).
'holy' with 'h' removed is 'oly'.
'oly' enclosing 'dd' is 'ODDLY'.
(Other definitions for oddly that I've seen before include "in a curious way" , "In a strange way" , "In a peculiar way" , "strange to say?" , "Weirdly" .)
