Rebekah Hargraves is the host of the Home and Hearth Podcast, which, up until recently, has always been mostly an interview-style podcast. Now, however, she is branching out into recording the tenth of her solo podcasts to piggy-back a bit off the topic of her last few solo shows, which have been on the topic of Biblical womanhood. Today she comes on the show to do a deep dive of 1 Timothy 2:11-15 in the hopes that what she shares today will help equip you to better understand this oftentimes confusing passage.
What She Chats about in Today's Episode:
~The cultural, historical, and biblical context of 1 Timothy 2:11-15
~What the whole canon of Scripture has to say about women teaching men
~Answering the claim that women are more easily deceived
~The problem in Corinth of women being uneducated, and how Paul sought to do away with this problem
~Understanding 1 Corinthians 14 and 1 Timothy 2 in light of 1 Corinthians 11
