@SadieMills19 @The_Wry_Griot @smashbaals Regarding the part from the commentary you provided regarding the law reference. Genesis 3:16 is not a commandment ("shall rule" is not in the imperative), it was spoken to the woman (so God wasn't giving Ada...

@Mosleya62Mosley @dannolane @Rach4Patriarchy Amen. And Jesus (or the apostles)

@JrShines @smashbaals God had to greatly increase her conception since they were going to die and had to populate the earth. She will desire her husband—it doesn’t say desire to rule. God’s comment to Eve about Adam ruling over her is not an impera...

@lostintherye @smashbaals What God said to Eve in Gen 3:16, that Adam would rule over her, was not a command to Adam, but God prophesying to Eve what would change in their relationship as a result of the fall. In His Church, Jesus tears down the div...

@BenZeisloft Are we reading the same Bible? Genesis 1:28 (NASB 2020): “God blessed them; and God said to **them**, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over...

“Lords: They rule well.” - Gen 1:28 is a plural imperative commanding both men and women to "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth and subdue it; and have dominion…”. Are you encouraging women to violate God’s command? “Husbandmen: They shep...

@EtAbundatGratia @JayMuratore @MikeWingerii It is eisegesis or confirmation bias to read into Gen 3:16 that she desires to rule her husband. Gen 4:7 is a different context. Sin is not a person, but metaphorically, if sin wants Cain perhaps like a w...

@EtAbundatGratia @JayMuratore @MikeWingerii @ryanshatz God’s design which ends at day 7 shows no evidence of the man being given the command to rule over the wife, but that they are to rule together over creation. This is an imperative plural in Gen...

@MargMowczko Great point about female masters! 1 Tim 5:14 uses the word οἰκοδεσποτεῖν which appears stronger than προϊστάμενοι from 1 Tim 3:4,12. "A Patristic Greek Lexicon" says "rule as a household; of God ruling the universe." It seems only to ...

@IiiPaulus @TheMcGloneCode @smashbaals It’s the only thing that makes sense in the context. It agrees with what is said in 1 Cor 11:11-12. Head can also mean prominent or first, like the one who steps out first. Being first however doesn’t make yo...

@blackmamba_btc @AEQEA @nakedpastor Priscilla doesn’t rule over Aquila and Aquila doesn’t rule over Priscilla. You are not understanding my view. Here’s the passage: Acts 18:24–26 (NASB 2020): 24 Now a Jew named Apollos, an Alexandrian by birth, a...

@AEQEA @blackmamba_btc @BrotherBoaz @nakedpastor Paul wasn’t advocating for a hierarchy of authority. He was talking about Jesus being the source or origin of His church and Adam being the source or origin of Eve thus giving the grounding for marria...

@PastorTSheppard @Jgrey2003 @pastordmack Gen 3:16 is not a command for Adam to rule over Eve. If it was, why did God say it to Eve? "To the woman He said..." - The word "rule" is in the imperfect. It could be considered future tense. God is sayin...

@DST_QA This is a prophecy from God spoken to Even, not Adam. If God wanted to communicate to Adam that He should rule over Eve, why didn’t He say it to Adam? And when we rule over creation, we use it for our benefit. Should the wife be used for t...

@pkh7276_pkh @MarkGrote @OperHealAmerica It doesn’t need to say that here. If everyone submits to everyone, then we know that Eph 5 cannot be encouraging one to rule over the other or a gender hierarchy. Everything goes back to Genesis, and there w...

@pkh7276_pkh @MarkGrote @OperHealAmerica Man is not the authority over or the ruler over the wife, but the “source” or “origin” of the wife. Christ is also the source of His church which is a bride but made up of both males and females. Jesus is sa...

@pkh7276_pkh @MarkGrote @OperHealAmerica What does that mean “have authority over men”? You mean any man in the church, or even the pastor, can just tell you what to do? If it is due to order of creation, then the animals should rule over people as...

@Jon82Mac I appreciate your demeanour. I really try not to get offended even if people get heated, but I appreciate your sincere questions. I don’t see Paul meaning that the husband is in a hierarchical position over, or the authority over, or the ...

@pauldirks @KaeleyT Elaborating on Gen 3:16… Why did God tell Eve that her husband would rule over her rather than God saying to Adam that He gave him rule over her? God did not say to Eve that she was to be in a place of permanent subordination. Wh...

@IssacharsNexus @JohnMoo26668690 In Genesis 1:26-28, the rulership over creation is given to them both. “Let them rule”. “Multiply,” “subdue” and “rule” are all in the plural form. Nothing of this is stated in chapter 2. God nowhere says that Ada...

@uncledando @ChristChurchTe1 @TomBuck You are right in that the husband is the kephale of his wife (since marriage always refers back to the first marriage). The problem is that you presume kephale means authority over or rule over. It means source...

@uncledando @ChristChurchTe1 @TomBuck What, you can’t read Gen 3:16 either? Why don’t you answer my questions then? Why didn’t God tell Adam he should rule the woman? Why were his words to Eve future not present? I don’t advocate for women forcin...

@uncledando @ChristChurchTe1 @TomBuck Men and women both form the bride of Christ. Just like Adam was the origin of Eve (she came from his flesh and bone), so also the Christ is the origin of the church (our life comes from Him). Jesus is said to r...

@rightresponsem I think your view is one of many that complementarians have to navigate as the Bible doesn’t give guidance and when, where and how a woman can teach, what to do if men are present, how an overseer oversees without violating these rule...

@harmonizedgrace Depends on what you mean by "fundamental" as the biology is fundamental in every cell (XY vs XX chromosomes), but men and women are equally able to lead as they are both rulers. There was no hierarchy or authority structures created...

@JosephConkle9 @L_T_Pearson @RupertP46422908 @JustinPetersMin I see. So in Paul’s advice concerning younger widows, he advises them to remarry and “manage their households”… (1Tim5:14). This word means “rule” or “despot” or “master” or “absolute ru...

@m_a_nilles @southernpresby @5pointsMckinley @AnnaGraceWood Someone had to come from the other one. Adam was the source of Eve, not her authority. Nowhere is he told to rule over her, except a prophesy after the fall which you seem to agree is the ...
