5 Views on “Women Keep Silent" (1 Cor 14_35-36): Women in Ministry part 11 00:12:17 – 00:13:49

Mike explains the UBS (United Bible Societies) critical apparatus and its rating of these verses.

The UBS is a scholarly apparatus that catalogues manuscript variations and assigns confidence ratings. For 1 Corinthians 14:34-35, the UBS gives a rating of 'almost certain' -- the highest possible rating -- that the verses are authentic and belong in their traditional location. This is considered an extremely high confidence rating among scholars.
