Bible Note: "Some like myself, would say, scrutinise and thoroughly investigate, examine each and every instance that the culture of the time of Paul writtings might be limited to that epoc." Of course, before you do that investigation, you must first ignore that Paul clearly says exactly why he forbids it in the very same passage, where he reveals that it has nothing to do with current cultural phenomenon but rather he forbid it based on creation and the fall. 1Ti 2:12 But I do not allow a woman to teach or exercise authority over a man, but to remain quiet. 1Ti 2:13 For it was Adam who was first created, and then Eve. 1Ti 2:14 And it was not Adam who was deceived, but the woman being deceived, fell into transgression.
