Jamieson, Fausset & Brown, on 1Cor 14:34

1Cor 14:34 · Douay-Rheims
“Let women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted them to speak, but to be subject, as also the law saith.”
On this verse:
“(Ti1 2:11-12). For women to speak in public would be an act of independence, as if they were not subject to their husbands (compare Co1 11:3; Eph 5:22; Tit 2:5; Pe1 3:1). For "under obedience," translate, "in subjection" or "submission," as the Greek is translated (Eph 5:21-22, Eph 5:24). the law--a term applied to the whole Old Testament; here, Gen 3:16.”
