1 Corinthians 14:35

Read in context

1 Corinthians 14:33–37 · Berean Standard Bible

33 For God is not a God of disorder, but of peace—as in all the churches of the saints.

34 Women are to be silent in the churches. They are not permitted to speak, but must be in submission, as the law says.

35 If they wish to inquire about something, they are to ask their own husbands at home; for it is dishonorable for a woman to speak in the church.

36 Did the word of God originate with you? Or are you the only ones it has reached?

37 If anyone considers himself a prophet or spiritual person, let him acknowledge that what I am writing you is the Lord’s command.
