Bible Answer: A point of interest. The proscription against a woman speaking is "in the church". What does this mean? I believe this is not necessarily speaking about ANY and EVERY public gathering of the church but of gatherings specifically for the sharing of the Lord's Supper on the first day of the week. There were certainly many women who preached in the early church -- but not at the weekly gathering to break bread. When Paul gives instructions to Timothy he says 1 Tim 2:12 "But I do not allow a woman to teach or exercise authority over a man, but to remain quiet." Some have said that this means a woman cannot teach a man but the Greek here shows that she cannot teach AT ALL! But the context of this passage is again "in the church". Why do I say this? Because in 1 Timothy 3:15 Paul tells Timothy what his preceding writings are about -- conduct in the church. Many of my brethren will probably take issue with me on this point but if we accept that "in the church" relates to the specific gathering to break bread then there are times when women can teach men publicly. If we do not accept this view of "in the church" then Paul says a woman can never teach - anyone, any time - and this is unacceptable for why would God make some women prophets if they could never prophesy? Still studying this for myself so these views are not final but a kind of reasoning in progress. In Jesus Christ who saves us Tim |
