Commentary

Commentary on 1 Timothy 2:13

Theological / Devotional

For. Paul here states his reasons for the counsel regarding the relationship between men and women.

Adam. The subordination of Eve to Adam following the entrance of sin in no way reflected dishonor on her, but was intended to bring harmony and to contribute to her fullest happiness (see on Gen. 3:16). As the husband is the head of the home, so he is the natural leader of a group of homes in a church congregation.
