“It seems like our interpretations come down to this: Is what is written true or is what is written so unclear and misconstrued that we cannot find what is true in it so we should dismiss it?”

This is what is written:

“I do not allow a woman to teach nor usurp authority over a man”

Is it true? Yes.

Is the singular grammar unclear? No.

Is the replacement of the inspired singular grammar with the plural, misconstrued:

I do not allow women to teach nor usurp authority over men.

Yes. Why? Because what is written (the singular) is true.

Can we find what is true about verse 12 which is in the singular? Yes, ONLY if it’s context is NOT dismissed.
