Hello,
I have come across a few verses in the Bible that I want to understand.
1) As I understand, in Genesis, woman refers to the sexual centre and husband refers to the intellectual centre. Is it the same in the above verses? Is this passage meaning to be in control of the sexual centre? And for it to submit to the superior intellectual centre in meditation (home)? Does church refer to an individual?
2) Does the Bible ever refer to husband and woman the way we do presently? Husband meaning married, male intellectual animal and woman meaning female intellectual animal? If so, is it then saying it is wrong for female intellectual animals to preach/ share truth? How do we interpret the intended meaning of scripture?
This question also comes up when reading passages regarding brothers and sisters, sons and daughters, mother and father, widows, wives. What is the meaning of these titles? Do they apply to both the spiritual and physical?
Many thanks as always.
I have come across a few verses in the Bible that I want to understand.
“Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law. And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church. What? came the word of God out from you? or came it unto you only?”
(1 Corinthians 14:34-36)
