Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - 1 Timothy 2:11
Let a woman learn in quietness with all subjection.This is far superior to the translation "learn in silence" in the King James Version; because no requirement whatever of silence is imposed in the worship of God. The quietness in view here is that of due acceptance of authority, respect for God's rule of prohibiting women from taking over the public worship, and the quiet acceptance of their womanly role as childbearers and mothers of the human race. Certainly, in the asking of questions in... read more

11. learn—not "teach" (1 Timothy 2:12; 1 Corinthians 14:34). She should not even put questions in the public assembly (1 Corinthians 14:34- :). with all subjection—not "usurping authority" (1 Corinthians 14:34- :). She might teach, but not in public (1 Corinthians 14:34- :). Paul probably wrote this Epistle from Corinth, where the precept (1 Corinthians 14:34) was in force. read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - 1 Timothy 2:8-15
B. The primary responsibilities of the men and the women in church meetings 2:8-15"In this paragraph Paul continues his instructions on ’prayers’ begun in 1 Timothy 2:1. But now the concern is for proper demeanor on the part of the ’pray-ers.’ But why these concerns, and why in this way? And why the inordinate amount of time devoted to the women in comparison with the men? Again, the solution lies with the false teachers. The word to the men is an obvious response to their controversies and... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - 1 Timothy 2:11-12
Regarding their participation in the meetings of the church (1 Timothy 3:15), Paul taught that the women were to let the men provide the public instruction and leadership. [Note: See Michael F. Stitzinger, "Cultural Confusion and the Role of Women in the Church: A Study of 1 Timothy 2:8-14," Calvary Baptist Theological Journal 4:2 (Fall 1988):24-42.] He did not mean that women should surrender their minds and consciences to men, but that they should voluntarily take the position of learners in... read more

Therefore] in the sense of ’well then.’First of all] His first exhortation as to Christian men is that they should pray. Supplications, prayers, intercessions, thanksgivings] The duty of the Christian Church in the matter of intercession is to offer prayers for others, and to give thanks for good things happening to others, and for... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - 1 Timothy 2:11
(11) Let the woman learn in silence.—The thought of public ministration is still in the Apostle’s mind, when he gives this injunction. The very questioning on difficult points is forbidden them at the public assembly (1 Corinthians 14:35). So averse was St. Paul to anything which might mar the quiet solemnity of these meetings for prayer and praise and authoritative instruction.This prohibition to speak publicly in assemblies for prayer and praise in the case of Christian women, was renewed in... read more

Expositor's Dictionary of Texts - 1 Timothy 2:1-15
1 Timothy 2:1 St. Paul says somewhere, 'I exhort that first of all prayers... be made for all men'. Few souls are capable of that wide and deep prayer which embraces the interests of all the earth and all the Church of God. We limit ourselves too much; we look at our own concerns too closely; souls remain as it were folded back upon themselves, saddened by the monotonous view of their own imperfections and discouraged by their weakness. We must know sometimes how to shut our eyes to ourselves,... read more

Chapter 9BEHAVIOUR IN CHRISTIAN WORSHIP: MEN’S ATTITUDE OF BODY AND MIND: WOMEN’S ATTIRE AND ORNAMENT. - 1 Timothy 2:8-12IN the preceding verses of this chapter, St. Paul has been insisting on the duty of unselfishness in our devotions. Our prayers and thanksgivings are not to be bounded in their scope by our own personal interests, but are to include the whole human race; and for this obvious and sufficient reason, - that in using such devotions we know that our desires are in harmony with the... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - 1 Timothy 2:1-15
2:1-4:16 CHURCH LEADERSHIP AND TEACHINGConduct in church meetings (2:1-15)Teachers of the kind Paul has described in Chapter 1 are usually narrow in their outlook and pray only for those of their own group. Christians should avoid such selfishness. They should pray for all without distinction, for God wants all to be saved (2:1-4). This salvation comes through the death of Jesus Christ. Paul rejoices that God has appointed him an apostle and teacher to make known this good news to the Gentiles... read more
