1 | WHAT IS A WOMAN PLACE IN CHURCH? | 1 Cor 11:5 | Makarios | 111522 | ||
Greetings Livin4yeshua, A much better verse than the verse that was selected for this thread that is more appropriate for addressing your question is 1 Cor. 14:34-35. Here is a bit of commentary on those verses: "14:34-35 .. Some believe that in light of 11:3 there is a God-ordained order that is to be the basis for administration and authority. Women are to be in submission to their husbands both at home (see Eph. 5:22) and in the church (see v. 34; 1 Tim. 2:11-12) regardless of their particular culture. According to this view, a timeless order was established at creation .." "Others maintain that Paul's concern is that the church be strengthened (v. 26) by believers showing respect for others (see vv. 30-31) and for God (see v. 33) as they exercise their spiritual gifts. Such respect must necessarily take account of accepted social practices. If within a particular social order, it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in church- and it was in this case (v. 35)- then she shows disrespect by doing so and should remain silent. There were occasions, though- even in this culture- for women to speak in church. For example, in 11:5 Paul assumes that women pray and prophecy in public worship. Thus his purpose, according to this view, was not to define the role of women but to establish a fitting (vv. 34-35) and orderly (vv. 27-31) way of worship (v. 40)." "Still others say that in this context Paul is discussing primarily the disruption of worship by women who become involved in noisy discussions surrounding tongues-speaking and prophecy. Instead of publicly clamoring for explanations, the wives were to discuss matters with their husbands at home (cf. v. 35). Paul does not altogether forbid women to speak in church (see 11:5). What he is forbidding is the disorderly speaking indicated in these verses."
