1 Corinthians 14:32

14:32 Indeed, the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets,

1 Corinthians 15:27-28

15:27 For he has put everything in subjection under his feet. ¹  But when it says “everything” has been put in subjection, it is clear that this does not include the one who put everything in subjection to him. 15:28 And when all things are subjected to him, then the Son himself will be subjected to the one who subjected everything to him, so that God may be all in all.

1 Corinthians 16:16

16:16 also to submit to people like this, and to everyone who cooperates in the work and labors hard.

1 Corinthians 14:34

14:34 the women ²  should be silent in the churches, for they are not permitted to speak. ³  Rather, let them be in submission, as in fact the law says.

[15:27]  ¹ sn A quotation from Ps 8:6.

[14:34]  ¹ tn The word for “woman” and “wife” is the same in Greek. Because of the reference to husbands in v. 35, the word may be translated “wives” here. But in passages governing conduct in church meetings like this (cf. 11:2-16; 1 Tim 2:9-15) the general meaning “women” is more likely.

[14:34]  ² sn For they are not permitted to speak. In light of 11:2-16, which gives permission for women to pray or prophesy in the church meetings, the silence commanded here seems not to involve the absolute prohibition of a woman addressing the assembly. Therefore (1) some take be silent to mean not taking an authoritative teaching role as 1 Tim 2 indicates, but (2) the better suggestion is to relate it to the preceding regulations about evaluating the prophets (v. 29). Here Paul would be indicating that the women should not speak up during such an evaluation, since such questioning would be in violation of the submission to male leadership that the OT calls for (the law, e.g., Gen 2:18).
