1 Cor 14:34-35
• The women are to keep silent [sigao; to hold peace] in the churches; for they are not permitted to speak, but are to subject themselves, just as the Law also says. 35 If they desire to learn anything, let them ask their own husbands at home; for it is improper for a woman to speak in church.

1 Cor 14:34-35

(Acts 8:14-17), to bring us to unity (Eph 4:11-13)
– Principles still apply (1 Cor 14:26, 33, 40).
