It will not take long to take all that the prophet had to say on this subject, for he spoke about it only twice to the Christian churches in Corinth and in Ephesus (where Timothy was a young minister): HIPSA 16.7
“I do not allow a woman to teach or exercise authority over a man, but to remain quiet” (1 Timothy 2:12, NASB). And: HIPSA 16.8
“Let the women keep silent in the churches; for they are not permitted to speak....” (1 Corinthians 14:34, NASB). HIPSA 16.9
That didn’t take long, did it? That’s all that Paul said on the subject. But what did Paul mean by what he said? What principle was he setting forth in his letter to first-century believers? And what message does he have for those who attend Christian churches nearly two millennia later? HIPSA 16.10
