WHO said "Women remain silent"? 1 Corinthians 14:34-40

Throughout 1 Corinthians Paul inserts words and sentences from his critics. He then responds to their ideas. In 1 Corinthians 14:34-35 he inserts a final quote from the legalists. They justified their views by saying "as the law says." This was the Jewish oral law not the Law! Therefore we should put quotation marks around verses 34-35. By not doing so we allow people to think Paul is advancing these ideas which are contradictory to the freedom in Christ he taught elsewhere! But some people have said this was a reference to Genesis 3:16. Here at the Tru316 Foundation we have shown that there are no such ideas in God's words to the woman. Paul clearly identifies the group at the source of these ideas. He refers to four identifiers.

The Tru316 Message is that “God didn’t curse Eve (or Adam) or limit woman in any way.” Once Genesis 3:16 is made clear the other passages on women and men become clear too. You are encouraged to access the episodes of Seasons 1-11 of The Eden Podcast for teaching on the seven key passages on women and men. Are you a reader?
