WHAT IS THE ROLE OF THE WOMAN IN SCRIPTURE

Contents

Table of Contents

According to the King James Version (KJV) and a literal interpretation, the Scriptures define distinct and honorable roles for women both at home and within the assembly. These roles are based on divine order, obedience, and function β€” not on worth or capability. YAH is not the author of confusion and has appointed structure for the good of the household and the congregation.

Let’s examine the role of women precept by precept, using only Scripture.


🏑 The Role of Women at Home

1. Keeper at Home

πŸ“– Titus 2:4–5 (KJV)

β€œThat they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,
To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands,
that the word of Elohim be not blasphemed.”

➀ Women are instructed to love their families and manage the home in modesty, obedience, and discretion. Their home-keeping is ministry in itself, fulfilling a divine purpose.


2. Submission to the Husband

πŸ“– Ephesians 5:22–24 (KJV)

β€œWives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.
For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Hamashiach is the head of the church…
Therefore as the church is subject unto Hamashiach, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.”

πŸ“– Colossians 3:18 (KJV)

β€œWives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord.”

➀ The home is a spiritual structure, and the wife’s role includes submitting to her husband as a reflection of the assembly’s submission to Messiah.


3. Guiding the House

πŸ“– 1 Timothy 5:14 (KJV)

β€œI will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house,
give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully.”

➀ A woman’s role in bearing, nurturing, and teaching her children is central to the strength of the household and the next generation of the righteous.


β›ͺ The Role of Women in Ministry

1. Silence in the Assembly

πŸ“– 1 Corinthians 14:34–35 (KJV)

β€œLet your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak;
but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law.”

πŸ“– 1 Timothy 2:11–12 (KJV)

β€œLet the woman learn in silence with all subjection.
But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.”

➀ These are clear commands. In the assembly, women are not to teach men, hold authority, or lead publicly. Their strength is shown through obedience, prayer, and righteous conduct.


2. Helpmate and Support

πŸ“– Genesis 2:18 (KJV)

β€œAnd YAH Elohim said, It is not good that the man should be alone;
I will make him an help meet for him.”

➀ Woman was created as a helper to the man β€” not beneath him, but as a supportive counterpart, especially in carrying out the will of YAH in the home and the community.


3. Ministering Through Service, Wisdom, and Righteous Works

πŸ“– Acts 9:36 (KJV)

β€œNow there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha… this woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did.”

πŸ“– Proverbs 31:26–27 (KJV)

β€œShe openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.
She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.”

➀ Women minister through hospitality, teaching younger women, service to the poor, and raising godly children. This is no small task β€” it is the foundation of the community’s future.

⚠️ Final Warning

πŸ“– Isaiah 3:12 (KJV)

β€œAs for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them.
O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.”

➀ When women abandon their divine roles and seek to rule, it leads to spiritual ruin β€” not empowerment.


βœ… Conclusion

The role of the woman is holy, honorable, and appointed by YAH Himself. It is not a position of inferiority but of purpose, protection, and wisdom. At home, she nurtures the seed. In ministry, she supports the structure. In obedience, she glorifies YAH.

πŸ“– Ecclesiastes 12:13 (KJV)

β€œFear Elohim, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.”

That includes women, who must embrace their calling with humility, strength, and holiness.

According to the King James Version (KJV) and literal interpretation, Scripture does not authorize women to assume roles assigned to men, even in times when righteous men are lacking. YAH’s order is not situational β€” it is eternal. When men fail, YAH raises up judgment or humbles the nation, but He does not change His structure to accommodate disobedience.

Let us examine this precept by precept, with no compromise.


πŸ“– 1. YAH Appointed Roles by Creation β€” Not by Circumstance

πŸ“– Genesis 2:18 (KJV)

β€œAnd YAH Elohim said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.”

πŸ“– 1 Corinthians 11:3 (KJV)

β€œBut I would have you know, that the head of every man is Hamashiach; and the head of the woman is the man…”

πŸ“– 1 Timothy 2:12–13 (KJV)

β€œBut I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man… For Adam was first formed, then Eve.”

➀ These roles were established at creation, based on order and function, not capacity or emergency.


πŸ“– 2. When There’s a Lack of Men, YAH Does Not Compromise β€” He Judges

πŸ“– Isaiah 3:12 (KJV)

β€œAs for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err…”

➀ This is not praise, but rebuke. It is a sign of judgment, not divine promotion.

When righteous men fail, the result is disorder, not a license for women to fill roles not assigned to them. YAH never authorizes rebellion against His order to fix a spiritual shortage.


πŸ“– 3. Women Are Never Assigned Headship Over Men in Assembly

πŸ“– 1 Corinthians 14:34–35 (KJV)

β€œLet your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak… for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.”

πŸ“– 1 Timothy 2:11–12 (KJV)

β€œLet the woman learn in silence with all subjection. But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man…”

➀ Even in Paul’s day, with Gentiles flooding into the faith and many disobedient men, this command remained absolute. It was not adjusted due to scarcity of male leadership.


πŸ“– 4. YAH May Use Women to Deliver Messages β€” But Never to Replace His Order

Examples such as Deborah, Huldah, or Miriam are often cited, but they do not overthrow the established order:

  • Deborah was a judge, not a priest or elder, and she pointed Barak to lead (Judges 4:6–9)
  • Huldah was consulted, but she did not rule the nation (2 Kings 22:14–20)
  • Miriam was a prophetess, but Aaron was the high priest (Exodus 15:20)

These were rare and specific instances, but not the pattern β€” and YAH still dealt with the failure of the men, not replaced them with a new order.


πŸ“– 5. YAH’s Solution Is Always to Raise Up Righteous Men

πŸ“– Ezekiel 22:30 (KJV)

β€œAnd I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me…”

πŸ“– Isaiah 32:2 (KJV)

β€œAnd a man shall be as an hiding place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest…”

➀ YAH seeks to raise men, not reassign His structure.

Women rulingSign of disorder (Isaiah 3:12)

⚠️ Final Warning

πŸ“– Deuteronomy 4:2 (KJV)

β€œYe shall not add unto the word… neither shall ye diminish ought from it…”

πŸ“– Malachi 3:6 (KJV)

β€œFor I am YAH, I change not…”

➀ The moment we adjust YAH’s order to fit our crisis, we place human reasoning above divine law β€” and invite spiritual destruction.


βœ… Conclusion

The shortage of righteous men should lead to repentance and training up obedient men, not assigning women to unlawful roles. The body must return to the law, not replace it with modern solutions.

πŸ“– Ecclesiastes 12:13 (KJV)

β€œFear Elohim, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.”

Let every woman honor her role. Let every man rise to his duty. Let the body of Messiah be built in order, not disorder.

No β€” according to Scripture, this is not sexism, but divine structure established by YAH Himself from the beginning.

The issue must be answered by the Word, not by modern culture or emotions. YAH’s commandments are not based on gender worth, but on function, obedience, and order.

Let’s examine it precept by precept:


πŸ“– 1. YAH Created Male and Female with Equal Worth, Different Roles

πŸ“– Genesis 1:27 (KJV)

β€œSo Elohim created man in his own image… male and female created he them.”

Both male and female are made in the image of YAH. There is no lesser value, but different roles.


πŸ“– 2. YAH Established Headship and Submission β€” Not Superiority and Inferiority

πŸ“– 1 Corinthians 11:3 (KJV)

β€œBut I would have you know, that the head of every man is Hamashiach;
and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Hamashiach is Elohim.”

➀ This is divine chain of authority, not male superiority. Even Messiah submits to the Father β€” and man submits to Messiah.

πŸ“– Ephesians 5:22–25 (KJV)

β€œWives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands…
Husbands, love your wives, even as Hamashiach also loved the church…”

➀ Headship is about responsibility, not domination.


πŸ“– 3. Equality of Salvation β€” Not Equality of Office

πŸ“– Galatians 3:28 (KJV)

β€œThere is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free,
there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Hamashiach Jesus.”

➀ This refers to access to salvation, not to roles in the assembly.
Men and women are equal in value, but not the same in assignment.


πŸ“– 4. The Body Has Many Members β€” Not All Have the Same Function

πŸ“– 1 Corinthians 12:18 (KJV)

β€œBut now hath Elohim set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him.”

➀ YAH appoints each person as it pleases Him, not based on human ambition or cultural ideas.


🧾 Summary

StatementBiblical Truth
Women are inferior❌ False β€” Genesis 1:27, Gal. 3:28
Women must obey YAH’s orderβœ… True β€” 1 Tim. 2:12, Titus 2:5
Submission = oppression❌ False β€” Messiah submits to the Father
Obedience = holinessβœ… True β€” Ecclesiastes 12:13

⚠️ Modern Thinking vs. Scripture

Today’s world teaches:

  • β€œIf you don’t lead, you’re worthless.”
  • β€œSubmission is oppression.”
  • β€œEquality must mean sameness.”

But Scripture teaches:

  • Obedience is greater than position.
  • Submission is power under control.
  • Your role is assigned by YAH, not by social norms.

βœ… Conclusion

To say YAH’s structure is sexist is to accuse the Creator of being unjust. That is a serious charge.

πŸ“– Deuteronomy 32:4 (KJV)

β€œHe is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment:
a Elohim of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he.”

If we accept YAH’s Word, we must accept His order β€” not because we agree, but because He is holy and we fear Him.

πŸ“– Isaiah 55:8–9 (KJV)

β€œFor my thoughts are not your thoughts… my ways higher than your ways.”

According to Scripture only (KJV) and a literal interpretation, women may have ministries of service and influence β€” as long as they do not violate the divine structure of male headship, do not usurp authority over men, and remain within their scriptural roles. The Bible permits women to engage in righteous works, teaching other women, and acts of mercy, including public service, charity, and even warning the community, if done in proper order.

Let’s explore this precept by precept:


πŸ“– 1. Women Are Called to Good Works and Ministry of Service

πŸ“– Acts 9:36 (KJV)

β€œNow there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha… this woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did.”

πŸ“– Proverbs 31:20 (KJV)

β€œShe stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy.”

➀ Women can lead in acts of charity, mercy, healing, and public aid β€” especially among women and children.


πŸ“– 2. Women May Teach β€” Other Women and Children

πŸ“– Titus 2:3–5 (KJV)

β€œThe aged women likewise… that they may teach the young women… To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home…”

➀ Women can and should teach other women β€” especially on matters of health, home, family, and obedience to the law.

If vaccines or other issues violate Torah commandments, a woman may warn others, particularly fellow mothers and sisters, within a female-led auxiliary.


πŸ“– 3. Women Must Not Teach or Rule Over Men

πŸ“– 1 Timothy 2:12 (KJV)

β€œBut I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.”

πŸ“– 1 Corinthians 14:34 (KJV)

β€œLet your women keep silence in the churches…”

➀ If the auxiliary becomes a teaching ministry to men, or an authority over elders, it becomes rebellion β€” even if the cause is righteous.


πŸ“– 4. YAH Honors Women Who Minister With Discernment

πŸ“– Judges 4:4–9 (KJV) – Deborah was a prophetess and judge, but she deferred military leadership to Barak.

πŸ“– 2 Kings 22:14–20 – Huldah was consulted for wisdom but did not rule over the king or the assembly.

➀ When women act in wisdom and spiritual discernment, their role is honorable β€” when done without overturning the structure YAH established.


πŸ“– 5. Ministry About Health and Warnings Can Be Righteous β€” If Lawful

πŸ“– Leviticus 19:16 (KJV)

β€œThou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer… neither shalt thou stand against the blood of thy neighbour.”

➀ To speak up against a harmful practice (such as unclean or harmful injections), to preserve life, is not only lawful β€” it’s obedience.

πŸ“– Proverbs 31:8–9 (KJV)

β€œOpen thy mouth for the dumb in the cause of all such as are appointed to destruction.”

➀ If done lawfully, without rebellion, a woman may organize and speak for protection, especially on behalf of children and the defenseless.

⚠️ Final Boundary

πŸ“– Ecclesiastes 5:1 (KJV)

β€œKeep thy foot when thou goest to the house of Elohim…”

πŸ“– Deuteronomy 4:2 (KJV)

β€œYe shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish…”

➀ A woman can build and protect β€” but she cannot rebuild the structure YAH has already set.


✨ Conclusion

Yes, a woman may lead a specialized auxiliary ministry, such as health advocacy or community service among women and families, provided she does not teach or rule over men, and the work is lawful, obedient, and under righteous headship.

πŸ“– Ecclesiastes 12:13 (KJV)

β€œFear Elohim, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.”

Certainly. Here is a clear, loving, yet scripturally firm message you can speak or print to explain to the women in your congregation why certain roles are given to them, and why others are not β€” based solely on YAH’s commandments, not tradition or culture.


πŸ“œ A Message to the Women Joining the Assembly

Beloved sisters in the faith,

Praise be to YAH for each of you. You are a vital part of this ministry, and I thank our Father in heaven for your faithfulness, obedience, and sacrifice. Without you, much of the daily work, prayer, and spiritual care in this body would not be possible.

We are here to serve YAH in truth β€” not according to feelings, tradition, or the ways of this world, but by the commandments of our Elohim, as found in the King James Version of Scripture.


πŸ’Ž Your Role Is Appointed by YAH, Not by Man

πŸ“– Genesis 1:27

β€œSo God created man in his own image… male and female created he them.”

YAH created men and women equal in value, but different in function. One is not better than the other. Like the left and right hand, they serve different purposes, but work together.

πŸ“– 1 Corinthians 11:3

β€œThe head of every man is Christ; the head of the woman is the man…”

This is not about worth β€” it is about structure. And YAH is a God of order.


πŸ§• You Are Called to Holiness, Service, and Power β€” Within His Order

πŸ“– Titus 2:3–5

β€œThe aged women… that they may teach the young women… to be discreet, chaste, keepers at home…”

πŸ“– Proverbs 31:26–27

β€œShe openeth her mouth with wisdom… She looketh well to the ways of her household.”

YAH has assigned you to be:

  • Teachers and examples to other women
  • Protectors of your homes
  • Guides to the young
  • Providers to the poor
  • Prayer warriors in the assembly
  • Watchers over children and widows

You are keepers of the house, defenders of the family, and builders of future generations.


❌ But You Are Not Permitted by YAH to Lead or Teach Over Men

πŸ“– 1 Timothy 2:12

β€œI suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.”

πŸ“– 1 Corinthians 14:34

β€œLet your women keep silence in the churches…”

These are not my words β€” they are YAH’s commands.
Even when men are few, we do not break His structure to fix a temporary need. Obedience is more important than numbers or feelings.


πŸ™ What You CAN Do β€” And Are CALLED to Do

You are called to lead other women in:

  • Teaching how to be set-apart wives and mothers
  • Feeding the hungry and managing resources
  • Running health and wellness programs
  • Interceding in prayer
  • Guiding the young and vulnerable
  • Visiting and helping the elderly
  • Keeping order and beauty in the sanctuary
  • Building righteous homes from the inside out

These are not β€œsmall” things β€” they are the foundation of the assembly.


⚠️ Why We Don’t Change the Order

πŸ“– Isaiah 3:12

β€œAs for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them…”

πŸ“– Deuteronomy 4:2

β€œYe shall not add unto the word… neither shall ye diminish from it…”

When women begin to teach men, lead assemblies, or take spiritual authority YAH did not give, confusion follows. That is not righteousness. That is disorder.

We are not trying to be like the world β€” we are building a holy people in line with YAH’s original plan.


❀️ A Final Word of Encouragement

You are daughters of Zion.
You are strong, beautiful, set-apart vessels for YAH’s glory.

πŸ“– Ecclesiastes 12:13

β€œFear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.”

This includes women β€” and you are doing it.

Let us walk in truth, humility, and holiness together. Let the women teach the women. Let the men lead the assembly. And let all things be done decently and in order.

πŸ“– 1 Corinthians 14:40

β€œLet all things be done decently and in order.”
