rwp - 1Timothy:2:11-12

rwp@1Timothy:2:11 @{In quietness} (\en hsuchii\). Old word from \hsuchios\. In N.T. only here, strkjv@Acts:22:2; strkjv@2Thessalonians:3:12|. {In all subjection} (\en pasi hupotagi\). Late word (Dion. Hal., papyri), in N.T. only here, strkjv@2Corinthians:9:13; strkjv@Galatians:2:5|. See strkjv@1Corinthians:14:33-35|.

rwp@1Timothy:2:12 @{I permit not} (\ouk epitrep\). Old word \epitrep\, to permit, to allow (1Corinthians:16:7|). Paul speaks authoritatively. {To teach} (\didaskein\). In the public meeting clearly. And yet all modern Christians allow women to teach Sunday school classes. One feels somehow that something is not expressed here to make it all clear. {Nor to have dominion over a man} (\oude authentein andros\). The word \authente\ is now cleared up by Kretschmer (_Glotta_, 1912, pp. 289ff.) and by Moulton and Milligan's _Vocabulary_. See also Nageli, _Der Wortschatz des Apostels Paulus_ and Deissmann, _Light, etc._, pp. 88f. \Autodike\ was the literary word for playing the master while \authente\ was the vernacular term. It comes from \aut-hentes\, a self-doer, a master, autocrat. It occurs in the papyri (substantive \authents\, master, verb \authente\, to domineer, adjective \authentikos\, authoritative, "authentic"). Modern Greek has \aphentes\ = Effendi = "Mr."
