Bible verses about "the role of the older woman" | JuliaSmith

³⁴ Let your women be silent in the churches: for it has not been committed to them to speak; but to be subjected, as also says the law. ³⁵ And if they will learn anything, let them ask their own husbands in the house; for it is shameful for women to speak in the church. ³⁶ Or came out the word of God from you or did it arrive to you only?

¹ An elder shouldest thou not reprove, but beseech as a father; the younger as brethren;

¹¹ Wives also grave, not accusers, sober, faithful in all things.

³ The aged women likewise, becoming holy in a serene state of mind, not accusers, not slaves to much wine, teachers of good; ⁴ That they render the young women discreet, to be lovers of the husband, lovers of the children, ⁵ Of sound mind chaste, remaining at home, good subordinates to their own husbands, that the word of God be not defamed.
