54:002:012 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
54:002:013 For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
54:002:014 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.
54:002:015 Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.
54:003:001 This is a true saying, If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work.
54:003:002 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach;
54:003:003 Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous;
54:003:004 One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity;
54:003:005 (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)
54:003:006 Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.
