Education View Hinge 1: Why only women? Why not uneducated men too?

5 Views on “Women Keep Silent" (1 Cor 14_35-36): Women in Ministry part 11 01:49:36 – 01:51:08

Mike presents the first critical hinge point that undermines the education view.

If the issue is uninformed questions disrupting services, why does Paul single out only women? Every Greco-Roman man entering the church would have been equally uneducated in Christian doctrine. Plutarch's passage (which Keener cites) mostly complains about men disrupting lectures. Paul had available Greek words for uninformed people: 'agnoeo' (to be ignorant/uninformed, used in 1 Cor 10:1, 12:1) and 'idiotes' (layperson/outsider, used in 1 Cor 14 elsewhere). He chose 'women' instead.
