End Time Army of Women Preachers Psalms 68:11

[Sister Alvear]

1 Timothy 2:12, in which Paul states "I do not suffer (permit) a woman to teach, or usurp authority over a man." In interpreting this verse, it is important to remember that the Greek words for "man" and "husband," as well as the words for "woman" and "wife," are the same. In the very next verse, Paul refers back to Adam being formed first, then Eve.

Exactly, & it is this very order of creation & headship that Paul uses as his basis of appeal in forbidding women to preach/teach men...Precisely the point I've been miking all along.

Also, why have none of these linguists adopted the translation you say they "should have"?

Here's why:


"Gune and aner are words which mean 'adult female' and 'adult male' in their unmarked meanings. Only if there are sufficient contextual clues that husband and wife are in view do the words mean 'wife' and 'husband.' The definite article or 'idios' (one's own) or a possessive pronoun is required to show that husband and wife are in the text. None of these things occur in 1 Tim 2. The article occurs in 1 Cor 11, but only because it is syntactically required by the construction. Both passages are clearly talking about the Christian community in worship, which would of course involve single adults and married couples. Take a look at other passages that are clearly speaking about husband and wife--e.g., Eph 5, 1 Peter 3--and you'll see that they use these signals to note that husband and wife are in view."


BTW - This is the leading Greek authority on the entire planet. Dr. Daniel Wallace. Let me guess, we'll just ignore this again & keep on with the copy-paste jobs - right?
