Ans. Yes, because it is a shame for them to speak in the Churches.
To understand let us consider the following verses from the Bible...
21st Century King James Version
34Let 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.
35And 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. (Corinthians 14: 34-35).
English Standard Version:
As in all the churches of the saints, 34 the women should keep silent in the churches. For they are not permitted to speak, but should be in submission, as the Law also says. 35If there is anything they desire to learn, let them ask their husbands at home. For it is shameful for a woman to speak in church. (Corinthians 14" 34-35).
Holman Christian Standard Bible:
As in all the churches of the saints, 34 the women [h] should be silent in the churches, for they are not permitted to speak, but should be submissive, as the law also says. 35 And if they want to learn something, they should ask their own husbands at home, for it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in the church meeting. (Corinthians 14" 34-35).
h. 1 Corinthians 14:34 Other mss read your women
New Century Version (NCV Bible):
As is true in all the churches of God's people,34 women should keep quiet in the church meetings. They are not allowed to speak, but they must yield to this rule as the law says.35 If they want to learn something, they should ask their own husbands at home. It is shameful for a woman to speak in the church meeting.
So, St.Paul commands women to be silent in church and "if they want to learn something, they should as their own husbands at home"....Huh!! Good way to degrade women...!! If anyone thinks that women is inferior to men, then he should look at the the Bible for the answer.
Q. Was Adam and Eve able to hid themselves from the God of the Bible?
Ans. Hilarious but true.
To understand this let us consider the following verses from the Bible....
21st Century King James Version:
8And they heard the voice of the LORD God, walking in the garden in the cool of the day. And Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees of the garden.
9And the LORD God called unto Adam and said unto him, "Where art thou?"
10And he said, "I heard Thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; and I hid myself." (Genesis 3:8-10).
English Standard Version:
8And they heard the sound of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool[c] of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God among the trees of the garden. 9But the LORD God called to the man and said to him, "Where are you?"[d] 10And he said, "I heard the sound of you in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked, and I hid myself." (Genesis 3:8-10).
c. Genesis 3:8 Hebrew wind
d. Genesis 3:9 In Hebrew you is singular in verses 9 and 11
New Century Version:
8 Then they heard the Lord God walking in the garden during the cool part of the day, and the man and his wife hid from the Lord God among the trees in the garden.9 But the Lord God called to the man and said, "Where are you?"
10 The man answered, "I heard you walking in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked, so I hid." (Genesis 3:8-10)
Holman Christian Standard Bible:
8 Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the LORD God walking in the garden at the time of the evening breeze, [c] and they hid themselves from the LORD God among the trees of the garden. 9 So the LORD God called out to the man and said to him, "Where are you?"
10 And he said, "I heard You [d] in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked, so I hid." (Genesis 3:8-10).
c. Genesis 3:8 Lit at the wind of the day
d. Genesis 3:10 Lit the sound of You
So the couple was able to hide from the prying eyes of the Omniscient, God of the Bible. This is another of those beautiful absurdness in the Bible.?
