Bible Women: Know Your Place! Godly Women should dress modestly & be shamefaced, should be submissive and learn from the man in silence 1Timothy 2:9-12 KJV "I desire that . . . women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with braided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array . . . Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection . . . I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp the authority over the man but be in SILENCE!" Should be silent and subject to their husbands 1 Corinthians 14:34-35 “. . . as in all churches of the saints. 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.”

Ephesians 5:22-24 "Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the savior of the body. Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing." Women are inferior secondary creations, are responsible for the fall of Man, are to be saved by experiencing pain in childbirth 1 Corinthians 11:9 "Neither was the Man created for the woman; but the woman for the Man."

1 Timothy 2:13-15 "For Adam was first formed, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. Notwithstanding, she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and chastity and holiness with sobriety."

Martin Luther, founder of Lutheranism and Protestantism: "If [women] become tired or even die, that does not matter. Let them die in childbirth - that is why they are there." Quotations from historical Christian leaders Tertullian the “Father of Latin Christianity” “Woman is a temple built over a sewer.”

Saint Clement of Alexandria "Every woman should be filled with shame by the thought that she is a woman."

“Nor are the women to smear their faces with the ensnaring devices of wily cunning . . . The Instructor (Paul) orders them to go forth “in becoming apparel, and adorn themselves with shamefacedness and sobriety, subject to their own husbands.”

Origen the greatest early Christian Bible Scholar “For it is improper for a woman to speak in an assembly, no matter what she says, even if she says admirable things, or even saintly things, that is of little consequence, since they come from the mouth of a woman.”

Saint Anthony the greatest early Christian monk "When you look upon a woman consider that you not face a human being, but the Devil himself, the voice of a woman is the hiss of a snake."

“What is the difference whether it is in a wife or a mother, it is still Eve the temptress that we must beware of in any woman… I fail to see what use woman can be to man, if one excludes the function of bearing children.”

Saint Augustine of Hippo: "We are born between feces and urine." [profanity adjusted]

“Woman does not possess the image of God in herself but only when taken together with the male who is her head”

Saint Jerome: "Woman is a tool of Satan and a pathway to hell."

Saint Thomas Aquinas: God made a mistake in creating woman "nothing [deficient] or defective should have been produced in the first establishment of things; so woman ought not to have been produced then."

Odo of the famous Cluniac Monastery "to embrace a woman is to embrace a sack of manure." [profanity adjusted]

Martin Luther "Girls begin to talk and to stand on their feet sooner than boys because weeds always grow up more quickly than good crops." Tertullian on the Apparel of Women

“No one of you at all, best beloved sisters, from the time that she had first “known the Lord,” and learned (the truth) concerning her own condition (that is, of being a woman), would have desired too gladsome (not to say too ostentatious) a style of dress; so as not rather to go about in humble garb, and rather to affect meanness of appearance, walking about as Eve mourning and repentant, in order that by every garb of penitence she might the more fully expiate that which she derives from Eve —the ignominy, I mean, of the first sin, and the odium (attaching to her as the cause) of human perdition. “In pains and in anxieties dost thou bear (children), woman; and toward thine husband (is) thy inclination, and he lords it over thee.” And do you not know that you are (each) an Eve? The sentence of God on this sex of yours lives in this age: the guilt must of necessity live too. You are the devil’s gateway: you are the unsealer of that (forbidden) tree: you are the first deserter of the divine law: you are she who persuaded him whom the devil was not valiant enough to attack. You destroyed so easily God’s image, man. On account of your desert—that is, death—even the Son of God had to die. And do you think about adorning yourself over and above your tunics of skins?”
