1 | Can a woman speak in church? | 1 Tim 2:15 | djconklin | 27898 | ||
Interesting points Nolan. However, whenever Paul uses the word "sozo" it always refers to salvation from sin. So, contrary to the speculations in the note in the Disciples Bible this verse does say that women will be saved through child-bearing. So, what does Paul mean here? As a side-note it was interesting to see how quickly the traditionalists dealt with this verse(if at all!). |

2 | Can a woman speak in church? | 1 Tim 2:15 | Robert Nicholson | 27900 | ||
Dear brother: I realize that this is not an answer to your primary question. However, I would like to carry on from your last post. "She shall be saved in childbearing "childrearing" How? "If she continue in faith, and charity and holiness and sobriety" V. 15 The word "saved" in this verse actually means she will be perserved. I believe that what Paul means is that a Christian woman who maintains a faithful life before her children, that her testimony will have an impact on her children. And like the woman of Proverbs 31 "her children will rise up, and call her blessed" V. 28. Conversely, the woman who does not maintain a faithful testimony before her children may have great aggravation in childrearing. I have difficulty with the amplified translation on this one. Peace in Our Saviour's Name Robert |

Robert, Thanks for the quick and kind response! If Paul had meant "preserved" then he could have used the word "zoogoneo" as in Luke 17:33 or "suntereo" as in Matt. 9:17 or Luke 5:38. The only time where I can find that the word "sozo" "means" preserve is in 2 Tim 4:18 and even there it is talking about ultimate preservation: "And the Lord shall deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve me unto his heavenly kingdom ..." and not about preservation frompain in this world. --- The word "teknogonia" means "childbearing"; it has no other meaning. Again, thanks for your kind response. |
