2:5 For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus,
2:6 who gave himself as a ransom for all people. This has now been witnessed to at the proper time.
2:7 And for this purpose I was appointed a herald and an apostle--I am telling the truth, I am not lying--and a true and faithful teacher of the Gentiles.
2:8 Therefore I want the men everywhere to pray, lifting up holy hands without anger or disputing.
2:9 I also want the women to dress modestly, with decency and propriety, adorning themselves, not with elaborate hairstyles or gold or pearls or expensive clothes,
2:10 but with good deeds, appropriate for women who profess to worship God.
2:11 A woman should learn in quietness and full submission.
2:12 I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet.
2:14 And Adam was not the one deceived; it was the woman who was deceived and became a sinner.
2:15 But women will be saved through childbearing--if they continue in faith, love and holiness with propriety.
