John,

Now does 1 Corinthians 34,35 mean that women are to remain silent at all times in a gathering of the Church body? No!

The word used in the Corinthian 14 passage is about complete silence.  It is not the Greek word used for not talking so loud but keeping completely silent. Also remember that a “law” is appealed to.  One cannot understand the passage without finding the “law” that is appealed to.  This is an elusive law, because it cannot be found in the OT.
