Biblical Sexism

Most of the bad press against women having an opinion or speaking comes from the story of Adam and Eve and Paul's comments about women in Church.

From the beginning Adam tried to blame his own sin on the woman and upon God.^[1] He tried to cover up the truth of his own nakedness and misbehavior with lies.

1 Corinthians 14:34 Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is <epitrepo>^[2] not permitted <epitrepo> unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law.
1 Timothy 2:12 But I suffer <epitrepo> not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.

Most people today think Church is the congregation of the people. The Church is the called out assembly appointed as ministers of Christ. Paul understood that better than most who read Paul. The Church was a a body and had an assigned job and then ministers of the Church had to meet certain directives of Christ. Those ministers unlike the ministers of the World depended upon charity of the people in congregation to obtain the means by which they are to do their job.

The Church is the corpus or body appointed by Christ to be the Benefactors of the people who do not exercise authority one over the other like the princes and rulers of the other nations. We are all suppose to minister one to another in love but the Church is a body politic having all things in common. It is a government but it does not exercise authority one over the other if its members are women or men.

Women in those days were to have a male covering, a husband, father, brother, uncle and even sons. They might have a great deal of authority over things within that coverture. The rise of theImperial Cult of Rome as a welfare state gave way to the State as the Father of the people. John the Baptist and Jesus taught that you should take care of one another by faith, hope and charity and what Paul the Apostle called the perfect law of liberty. Christians had their own welfare in the form of a Daily ministration which would be at the core of the Christian conflict with Rome.

We see in Timothy where Paul did not approve of lone women wandering about.^[3]

Luke 2:36 And there was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Aser: she was of a great age, and had lived with an husband seven years from her virginity; ^[4]

There were other women who were also considered prophets:

Acts 21:8 ¶ And the next [day] we that were of Paul’s company departed, and came unto Caesarea: and we entered into the house of Philip the evangelist, which was [one] of the seven; and abode with him. And the same man had four daughters, virgins, which did prophesy.

Acts 2:14-17, 18 "But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judaea, and all [ye] that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words:... And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: 18 And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:

And this is where this was expressed in the Old Testament:

Joel 2:28 ¶ And it shall come to pass afterward, [that] I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:

12 Having damnation, because they have cast off their first faith. 13 And withal they learn to be idle, wandering about from house to house; and not only idle, but tattlers also and busybodies, speaking things which they ought not. 14 I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully. 15 For some are already turned aside after Satan. 16 If any man or woman that believeth have widows, let them relieve them, and let not the church be charged; that it may relieve them that are widows indeed."
↑ Luke 2:37 And she was a widow of about fourscore and four years, which departed not from the temple, but served God with fastings and prayers night and day. 38 And she coming in that instant gave thanks likewise unto the Lord, and spake of him to all them that looked for redemption in Jerusalem. 39 And when they had performed all things ccording to the law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city Nazareth. 40 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him.
