1 Tim. 2:10      1 Tim. 2:12

First letter to Timothy 2:11

[The following two verses are structured in a chiastic pattern where the word quietness, Gk. hesuchia, frames the context. The word is also used in verse 2 about living in quietness, security, and peace. It describes a peaceful attitude where one is secure in oneself. The expression "to be still and submit" was also used in Judaism. This was how a rabbi was taught, see Isa. 41:1; Hab 2:20; Zech. 2:13. The well-known verse from Ps. 46:11 illustrates this godly attitude: "Be still and know that I am God." In contrast to the prevailing Jewish tradition, women's education is encouraged. This exhortation stands in contrast to the foolish women in 2 Tim. 3:6–7 who are constantly being taught but never succeed in coming to an understanding of the truth.]
A woman should quietly (calmly)
learn (be a disciple – Gk. manthano) in all submission [Luke 10:39].
