@ronhenzel @WonderingBashir @HwsEleutheroi Men does not equal man, but if it did, my point would stand from another angle. Because then the definite man would necessitate the definite woman (in v11-12). Paul wants strange doctrines to not be taught ...

@ronhenzel @WonderingBashir @HwsEleutheroi Style is not a good Biblical answer. Details matter in inspired scripture. And your response leaves us with Paul telling all women not to teach men and supports two anaphoric references but not the correct o...

@ronhenzel @WonderingBashir @HwsEleutheroi Further, you said “a woman “ means women in general but why does Paul shift from the plural in the prior verses to the singular if he intends the plural for both? Can you find another place in Scripture wh...

@evaanderberg @dalepartridge How do you know it didn’t exist for the first 1900 years? I go back to the apostles and I believe that women were leaders in the apostolic churches because of the Biblical text. That said, there were churches far longer t...

@covapologetics @MissionaryJC3 So you think that 1Co 14:35 instructs women to marry so that they can get their questions answered? So no other woman can answer their questions? Of course, Paul is quoting from the letter the Corinthians wrote (1Co 7...

@covapologetics @MissionaryJC3 Because you missed Paul’s purpose Im the letter which was for Timothy to “instruct *certain people* not to teach strange doctrines” (1Ti 1:3). Here you have a certain person, ‘the woman’ (1Ti 2:14), whom Paul wants to s...

@ronhenzel @WonderingBashir @HwsEleutheroi The first use of woman is *NOT* definite. Where are you getting that from? Paul is first referring to women plural and then shifts to the singular in v11-12 which is the first singular anarthrous reference. ...

@ronhenzel @WonderingBashir Oh hi, Ron! Why didn't Paul just say women (plural)? Rather, he says "a woman...a woman...she...the woman...she"⎯the reference is specific, aligned with the purpose of the letter to stop the teaching of strange doctrines ...

Joel says it is wicked to say he teaches that women must bear children or they are not saved. What he meant was that if you are a woman who desires to be single and not be a mother, with no signs of repentance, you are assuredly reprobate. Sounds p...

@Vibeauxs @Eric_Conn Both 1Ti 3:1-7 and Tit 1:5-9 are listing the same requirements which are based on character and proven faithfulness. Paul doesn’t use male pronouns or say “must not be a female” but “women likewise” (1Ti 3:11). The verse many str...

@ChappyMacc @rightresponsem Or…you could be reading into Jesus’ choice of 12 Jewish male apostles something that was never intended. For instance, who were the disciples that went out 2x2 when He sent out the 70 (or 72 according to Luke)? Nothing exp...

@graceforprize @ComeBack_Yeshua @Rattle_Resists @michael_ronning Because the male apostles represent the 12 tribes of Israel. While we are not told who was sent in the 70 (or 72 according to Luke), we must assume that all those he was instructing as ...

@SavedbygraceIII @pickles344873 @Eric_Conn You forbid solid women from teaching and so what we are left with is liberal ones in liberal churches. Oddly, it’s your kind of teaching and behaviour that has enabled liberal feminism. You realize that the...

@pickles344873 @SavedbygraceIII @Eric_Conn Jezebel? I do not support false teachers including women who teach false doctrine and entice people to sin. Why do you presume that all women teach false doctrine? It’s mainly just liberal women who are pa...

@graceforprize @ComeBack_Yeshua @Rattle_Resists @michael_ronning Yes, Jesus sent Paul to the Gentiles, but why do you say he only chose men? What about Priscilla who went with him on his journeys and Junia who was highly esteemed among the apostles? ...

@SavedbygraceIII @JohnJoh26521652 @Eric_Conn Matthew He tu was confused by this passage too. First, teaching itself has not authority as the Bereans demonstrated—it is the content, if true, that has authority. Second, if women can teach at home, at w...

@JRowley11 @Just_A_Man67 That’s completely incorrect. I mean that I’ve read the passages that complementarians and patriarchalists rely on to restrict women and I draw a different conclusion. For example, 1Co 14:34-35 is clearly Paul quoting from the...

@SavedbygraceIII @JohnJoh26521652 @Eric_Conn Interesting that your translation added the article in 1Ti 2:11. Interesting too that the article IS present in verse 14. Why isn’t it “women (pl)” like in 1Ti 2:9-10? If the purpose of writing Timothy is ...

@ymmotrojam @onedayatatimeLB @smashbaals Paul transitions from talking about women in the 3rd person to addressing “you” (2nd pers) in v36. This abrupt shift suggests he’s now directly challenging those responsible for the views expressed in v34-35. ...

@ymmotrojam @onedayatatimeLB @smashbaals The accusative here emphasizes exclusive reception—Paul is challenging their presumed monopoly on divine authority. It’s as if he’s saying, “Do you really think God’s word is for you alone?” Clearly they think...

@blazefranco_ @smashbaals No, that's not what 1Ti 2:11-12 says. "A" woman is not all women, and Paul's clear and stated purpose is to stop false teaching not true teaching from anyone. There's a specific couple⎯a wife teaching heresy and her husband ...
