Dealing with 1 Timothy V2:9-15

[Pathway2]

why did Paul write all this down, how does the church approach these verses?

 

[Fauken]

Which Timothy? 1 Timothy or 2 Timothy?

 

[Pathway2]

1 Timothy

10 character

 

[Arkansan]

Presumably he wrote in down because he believed it would be instructive to his audience.

Obviously, an all-made clergy is part of the divinely established constitution of the Church.

 

[Pathway2]

but why did Paul tell that women have to be silence and cannot teach?

 

[Arkansan]

Because that was the liturgical law at the time.

 

[Pathway2]

at the time.

At the time, it is it like now?

 

[stpurl]

A woman who reads the epistles/readings at church or leads the singing or even assists as a server or an EMHC is NOT ‘teaching’ in the Church. Therefore, Paul’s words stand. No ‘women priests’, not because women aren’t ‘good enough’, but because it’s the MEN who are more in need of being humble servants to others.

 

[Ioana]

Apperently the Greek meant more “peaceful” than silent.
