Summary: Part 2 in the series on Women in Leadership within the church. Scripture: 1 Timothy 2:11-15 Statement by Andrew as his current understanding: Paul was addressing a particular problem specific to the church at Ephesus in which false teaching was resulting in inappropriate behaviour. Paul was not necessarily giving a universal order to all women for all time not to teach or have authority over a man within the church context, but he was speaking against a domineering type of authority going on in Ephesus.
