@EricisAmerican @Protestia Those “he’s” you are referring to are inferred. There isn’t a single explicit male pronoun in these passages in the Greek. Even still, in Koine Greek, the male form is often used when speaking generically. So to forbid women, this would need to be explicit, and it is not.
