Woman was " taken out of man" ( Gen. 2: 23), and therefore the man has the preeminence. " The head of the woman is the man;" but yet honour is to be shown to the wife, " as unto the weaker vessel" ( 1 Cor. 11: 3, 8, 9; 1 Pet. 3: 7). Several women are mentioned in Scripture as having been endowed with prophetic gifts, as Miriam ( Ex. 15: 20), Deborah ( Judg. 4: 4, 5), Huldah ( 2 Kings 22: 14), Noadiah ( Neh. 6: 14), Anna ( Luke 2: 36, 37), and the daughters of Philip the evangelist ( Acts 21: 8, 9). Women are forbidden to teach publicly ( 1 Cor. 14: 34, 35; 1 Tim. 2: 11, 12). Among the Hebrews it devolved upon women to prepare the meals for the household ( Gen. 18: 6; 2 Sam. 13: 8), to attend to the work of spinning ( Ex. 35: 26; Prov. 31: 19), and making clothes ( 1 Sam. 2: 19; Prov. 31: 21), to bring water from the well ( Gen. 24: 15; 1 Sam. 9: 11), and to care for the flocks ( Gen. 29: 6; Ex. 2: 16). The word " woman," as used in Matt. 15: 28, John 2: 4 and 20: 13, 15, implies tenderness and courtesy and not disrespect. Only where revelation is known has woman her due place of honour assigned to her. |
