Reformed 1871 · Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible, 1Cor 14:35

Jamieson, Fausset & Brown, on 1Cor 14:35

1Cor 14:35 · Douay-Rheims
“But if they would learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home. For it is a shame for a woman to speak in the church.”
On this verse:
“Anticipation of an objection. Women may say, "But if we do not understand something, may we not 'ask' a question publicly so as to 'learn'? Nay, replies Paul, if you want information, 'ask' not in public, but 'at home'; ask not other men, but 'your own particular (so the Greek) husbands.'" shame--indecorous.”
