Gune functions as a generic noun, which is
appropriate since Paul in verse 11 isaddressing a general truth.

16/57
In relation to this, notice that Paul uses the
plural form of this word in verses 9-10 but
uses the singular in verse 11 and that is
because he is teaching an eternal spiritual
truth that is applicable in every dispensation.

30/57
The fact that Paul has to address this issue in1 Timothy 2:11-15 with regards to the
womans role in the church implies that there
was a problem among the Christian women in
Ephesus attempting to be teachers and being
insubordinate since why mention it except for
preventive maintenance.
-
7/30/2019 1tim_00046_women issue.ppt
31/57
Undoubtedly, there were many women who
were not insubordinate by attempting to teach
the Word of God to men in the local assemblyand of course there must have been a few that
did otherwise he would not addressed this
issue in the first place.
-
7/30/2019 1tim_00046_women issue.ppt

So it appears that some women wereinsubordinate and many were not and thus it
is best to view this present imperative as Paul,
simply communicating a general precept ofthe Word of God and the Lord and the
apostles teaching without reference to
whether there was a violation of thiscommand or not.

1 Timothy 2:11 A woman must quietly

7/30/2019 1tim_00046_women issue.ppt
35/57
In 1 Timothy 2:11 and 12, the noun hesuchia

7/30/2019 1tim_00046_women issue.ppt
39/57
Since in context, Paul is addressing the proper
behavior or conduct of Christian women
while functioning in the local assembly along
with men, the noun hesuchiameans silence
rather than quietly or quietness.
-
7/30/2019 1tim_00046_women issue.ppt
40/57
1 Corinthians 11:5 and Titus 2:2-3 make clearthat Paul is speaking with respect to a
particular activity in the church, namely the
communication of the Word of God since theformer permits women to speak if they have
the gift of prophecy and the latter permits her
to teach other women who are immature oryounger.

7/30/2019 1tim_00046_women issue.ppt
41/57

Christian women must learn the Word of God
with complete deference to the man with the

assembly by not teaching the Word of God to
men in the local assembly.
-
7/30/2019 1tim_00046_women issue.ppt
43/57
Therefore, in 1 Timothy 2:11 hesuchia does
not have any reference to the womans
attitude when receiving the Word of God but
rather her conduct and role with respect to the
teaching of the Word of God.
-
7/30/2019 1tim_00046_women issue.ppt
44/57
Paul is prohibiting the women in the Christian
community from giving biblical instruction in
the local assembly when in the presence of
men.
-
7/30/2019 1tim_00046_women issue.ppt
45/57
They are to show complete deference to those
men with the spiritual gift of pastor-teacher
when they are communicating the Word of
God to the church by not teaching men in the
local assembly themselves.

7/30/2019 1tim_00046_women issue.ppt

specifically addressing the conduct of women
in a public worship setting with respect to the
exercise of the spiritual gift of pastor-teacher.
