1 Timothy 2: 8-15

I desire then that in every place the men should pray, lifting holy hands without anger or quarreling; likewise also that women should adorn themselves in respectable apparel, with modesty and self-control, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly attire, but with what is proper for women who profess godliness—with good works. Let a woman learn quietly with all submissiveness. I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet. For Adam was formed first,then Eve; and Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor. Yet she will be saved through childbearing—if they continue in faith and love and holiness, with self-control.

Paper Outline

My Paper Outline goes something like this:

1. Introduction (.5 page)
2. Preferred Greek Text with Textual Criticism Apparatus Explanation which there aren't really any of (.5 page)
3. My translation (.5 page)
4. Word studies which I did the one from the assignment and two more (2 pages)
5. Historical Context (Greco-Roman and some other choice pieces from primary and secondary sources) (at least 1 page)
6. Intertextuality of Paul's writings and other Biblical passages (.5 to 1 page)
7. My Commentary using above evidence and secondary source ideas (2-2.5 pages)
8. Conclusion, where I answer my thesis from the introduction (.5 page)

Which is somewhere around 8 pages without the greek passage or my translation. I'm more worried that it's too long. but I hope this helps.

By the way check out this find.
