NASB | 1 Corinthians 14:34 ¶ The women are to keep silent in the churches; for they are not permitted to speak, but are to subject themselves, just as the Law also says. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Corinthians 14:34 ¶ the women should be silent in the churches, for they are not authorized to speak, but are to take a subordinate place, as the Law says. |
Subject: Women speak in church? |
Bible Note: In another posting on this passage I proposed the idea that this proscription is against a woman speaking "in the church". This is not the sanctuary or building. Neither is it the "church universal" or they could never speak again! This, I believe, refers to a specific gathering of the church -- that gathering where we gather to partake of the Lord's Supper.
