End Time Army of Women Preachers Psalms 68:11

[Sister Alvear]

1 Tim. 2:11. It does not say women but a woman, and better still, a wife. The word in Greek is gune (1135), which indicates either a woman generically speaking or a wife, depending on the context. In this instance, since it stands in apposition to the word andros (the genitive singular of aner here meaning only “husband” and not “man” generically, 435), it must be translated as “a wife.”

Hmmm, apparently every-single one of these professional linguists missed something you see (from yet another copy-paste job). None of them (independent of one another) have adopted the translation you say they should have (for the syntactical reasons I've posted repeatedly in this thread):

Guess you see something they alllllllllllllllllllll overlooked?


A genitive singular noun does not demand "possession" (if that's what you're thinking?) & when it does the noun (in this case "man") is generally translated into English with a prepositional phrase starting with the word "of" - none of which is the "case" in I Timothy 2.12. For more on the function of a genitive case Greek noun see here: http://www.ntgreek.org/learn_nt_greek/nouns1.htm.
