Do you thing the ladies went off to some corner and had a knitting party? I would think they were doing what Clement was doing in (Phil. 4:2-3). And note carefully what the apostle says with regard to these ladies of the early church.:..“And I entreat you also, true yokefellow, help those WOMEN who LABORED WITH ME in the gospel, with Clement also, and with other of my fellow laborers, whose names are in the book of life” (Phil 4:3)...
Philippians 4:2-3
GOD’S WORD Translation (GW)
2 I encourage both Euodia and Syntyche to have the attitude the Lord wants them to have. 3 Yes, I also ask you, Syzugus, my true partner, to help these women. They fought beside me to spread the Good News along with Clement and the rest of my coworkers, whose names are in the Book of Life.
When he describes the ministry of Euodia and Syntyche, Paul uses a couple of the same terms he had previously applied to Timothy and Epaphroditus. Paul writes that Euodia and Syntyche had contended[3] together with him (literally) “in the Gospel”. Earlier in the same letter, Paul had also described Timothy as someone who had served with him “in the Gospel” (Php 2:22). Paul goes on to refer to Euodia and Syntyche as his “co-workers”. Earlier, Paul had also referred to Epaphroditus as his “co-worker” (Php 2:25).[4] Thus, according to Paul, the ministries of these women were comparable to the ministries of the men, Timothy and Epaphroditus.
So my dear friend men and women went everywhere preaching....
