If it's not in the Bible, it's not Scripture. It really doesn't matter if I or anyone else likes it or not.
Well...if both Jesus and Paul address it, and Paul does indeed give us a more clear understanding.....then yah....both texts are inspired.
Or just read the Scriptures and see what they say, then believe them?
Give me a break. Both of us know the gospels were written based on Paul's "revelation", and enhanced the stories the further away from the cusp of were BCE changed to CE they moved.

No kidding. It's like whoever the author was of that of the bible had smoked some real high THC content hash, and then "gave 'er snooze " into fantasyland.

Vizio, do you have any ideal funny it sounds that you have a woman playing the piano, and that's your idea of equality? That's just crying out to be a meme!

Go and study the Talmud and the comings and goings of the fall Holy days. Go and read the appointed prayers and study everything a priest does from Rosh Hashanah to Simchat Torah and you wouldn't think anyone was high. You can write Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur on just about every page of Revelation but a person who does not know the prayers and the comings and goings of the temple during the fall Holy days cannot read Revelation. It is written to Jews who keep the feasts of Messiah and who know all the traditions and rituals which are many.
If there is silence in heaven for 30 min, what has just taken place?
This would be obvious to a person who knows what the priests is doing and then what the people do.

I mean a job you cannot do because of your gender than a woman can...

NAME ONE JOB YOU ARE QUALIFIED FOR BUT CANNOT DO BECAUSE OF YOUR GENDER? AND being a MOTHER is not one...
