From a letter written by the apostle Paul,
with Sosthenes,
to believers in Corinth and everywhere:
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? If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord. But if any man be ignorant, let him be ignorant. Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues. Let all things be done decently and in order.-1 Corinthians 14:34-40***In the beginning, on the 6th day, the Lord God created Adam, the 1st man. The Lord God formed Adam from the dust of the ground, and the Lord God made Eve, the mother of all living, after taking a part out of Adam. After Eve and Adam disobeyed the command of the Lord God, the Lord God sent the man out of the Garden of Eden so that another specific transgression would not be committed. Isaac and Rebekah were descended from Adam and Eve's son Seth, Seth's great-great-great-grandson Enoch, Enoch's great-grandson Noah the ark builder, Noah's son Shem, Shem's son Arphaxad, and Arphaxad's great-great-great-great-great-grandson Terah. Abraham (Abram the Hebrew), Sarah (Sarai) and Nahor were born to Terah. When Abraham was 100 years old, Isaac was born to Abraham and 90-year-old Sarah. Bethuel was born to Nahor, and Rebekah was born to Bethuel. When Isaac was 40 years old, he married Rebekah. When Isaac and Rebekah's fraternal twin sons Esau (Edom) and Jacob (Israel) were in Rebekah's womb, Rebekah questioned the Lord God and received an answer from the Lord God regarding the activity of the sons in her womb. Leah and Rachel were siblings, and Rebekah's nieces and Jacob's wives. Jochebed and Amram were Israelites descended from Jacob and Leah, and Jacob and Leah's 3rd born son Levi. Miriam, Aaron and Moses were born to Jochebed and Amram when the Israelites were enslaved in Egypt. When Moses was 3 months old, Jochebed placed Moses into a specially prepared ark and set the ark near the vegetation of the river, to save Moses' life. Miriam watched the activity and spoke to the daughter of Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, and arranged for Jochebed to serve as Moses' wet nurse. After Jochebed took Moses to Pharaoh's daughter, Moses lived as the son of Pharaoh's daughter. When Moses was 40 years old, he hurriedly left Egypt due to a murderous incident. When Moses was 80 years old and Aaron was 83, they led the Israelites away from Egypt, across the divinely parted Red Sea, and into the desert wilderness of Shur, according to the commands of the Lord God. Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah were Israelites from the tribe of Manasseh, descended from Jacob and Rachel's firstborn son Joseph and his wife Asenath, and Joseph and Asenath's firstborn son Manasseh. In Egypt, Jacob had proclaimed Manasseh and Manasseh's younger brother Ephraim to be his own sons. Mahlah and her sisters asked to be given a portion of the Promised Land inasmuch as their deceased father Zelophehad did not have any sons to inherit land. Moses spoke to the Lord God, and the Lord God told Moses that Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah spoke rightly. Thus, the Lord God gave Moses an additional inheritance law for the Israelites. Joshua, Moses' successor from the tribe of Ephraim, led the Israelites across the divinely parted Jordan River and onto the land that the Lord God promised to give to Abraham, and Isaac, and to Jacob, and their descendants. After 110-year-old Joshua died and was buried in his tribe's portion of the Promised Land, the Israelites were led by elders, judges, or their own minds. Deborah, a prophetess, wife and judge, spoke the words of the Lord God to Barak. After Barak stated that he would go to battle only if Deborah was with him, Deborah told Barak that the Lord God would give the upcoming victory into a woman's hand. Subsequently, the enemy whom Barak should have defeated was killed by Jael, a married woman, and Deborah and Barak included Jael's name and actions in a song. When the Israelites were living in 2 separate kingdoms in the Promised Land, and King Josiah was reigning in Jerusalem over Judah, the southern nation, the Book of the Law was found within the temple of the Lord. Josiah sent Hilkiah the high priest and 4 others with Hilkiah to seek the Lord God. The group went to speak with Huldah, a prophetess and wife, and Huldah proclaimed to them the message she received from the Lord God. Over 500 years after both of the kingdoms in the Promised Land were conquered, according to the will of the Lord God, due to the idolatry and other wickedness of the Israelites, Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, was born. Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary, a virgin, and Jesus was born into the tribe of Jacob and Leah's 4th born son Judah, the tribe of Josiah and all of Judah's kings, to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin. On the 8th day after Jesus was born to Joseph and Mary, Jesus was circumcised, according to the covenant of circumcision that the Lord God gave to Abraham. On the 40th day after Jesus was born, Joseph and Mary brought Jesus to Jerusalem to the temple of the Lord God, obeying the laws that the Lord God gave to Moses for the Israelites. In Jerusalem, Jesus, Joseph and Mary were in the presence of Simeon and Anna. Simeon was an Israelite and worshiped the Lord God. Anna was an Israelite, a prophetess and widow from the tribe of Asher, descended from Jacob and maidservant Zilpah, and Jacob and Zilpah's 2nd and last son Asher. Anna lived within the temple grounds and served the Lord, continually praying and fasting. Upon seeing Jesus, Anna praised the Lord. Moreover, Anna spoke of Jesus to others awaiting redemption. Approximately 30 years after Jesus was born to Joseph and Mary, Jesus was baptized in the Jordan River by Mary's relative John the Baptist, from the tribe of Levi. Jesus having prayed, the heavens tearing open, the Holy Spirit descended as a dove and lit upon Jesus. The Lord God in heaven audibly acknowledged his Son Jesus, and the Holy Spirit led Jesus into the desert wilderness. Jesus fasted for 40 days and nights and was tempted. Afterwards, Jesus was tended to by angels, and Jesus went to the area near John the Baptist, and John the Baptist proclaimed Jesus to be the Lamb of God taking away the sin of the world. In Galilee, Jesus told specific Israelite men to follow him, and Jesus began to preach, teach and perform miracles among the Israelites, the treasured and chosen people of the Lord God. Less than 3 1/2 years after Jesus was baptized, Jesus was betrayed by Judas Iscariot, the disciple and apostle, and Jesus was arrested, crucified, buried in a tomb, resurrected, and returned to heaven. Paul (Saul) was from the tribe of Jacob and Rachel's 2nd and last son Benjamin. Paul did not believe Jesus to be the Christ. Throughout Jerusalem, Paul persecuted and imprisoned Israelites who called upon the name of Jesus. Near Damascus, Syria, Paul and those with him saw a light from heaven flash around them. Paul heard the voice of Jesus speaking to him, and Paul spoke to Jesus and obeyed Jesus. In Damascus, Paul was baptized. From thenceforward, Paul the apostle journeyed and wrote divinely inspired letters, teaching the good news of Jesus the Christ and everlasting life to Israelites and Gentiles, people not born into the Israelite tribes.-Genesis, Exodus, Numbers 20:1-29, 26:28-34, 27:1-23, 36:1-13, Deuteronomy 31:1-34:12, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 23:1-24:33, Judges 1:1-5:31, 1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings, 2 Kings, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, 10:1-29:30, 2 Chronicles, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts, 1 Corinthians, 2 Corinthians

Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall ruler over thee.-Genesis 3:16
Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. For Adam was first formed, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.-1 Timothy 2:11-14
