  "THE FIRST EPISTLE TO TIMOTHY"

                              Chapter Two

OBJECTIVES IN STUDYING THIS CHAPTER

1) To appreciate the importance and place of prayer, especially in the
   lives of men

2) To notice God's desire for the salvation of all men, therefore
   offering Christ as a ransom for all, not just a select few

3) To understand the proper adornment of women, and their place in the
   public teaching of the church

SUMMARY

Having reminded Timothy of his charge to remain in Ephesus and "wage
the good warfare," Paul now begins instructing Timothy in matters that
involve the church.  He starts with a call to prayer, defining for whom
and why we should pray.  His desire is that men pray in every place,
lifting up holy hands without wrath and doubting (1-8).

Just as men are to pray everywhere, so women are to adorn themselves
properly.  This involves modest apparel worn with propriety and
moderation, but it also includes good works, as is proper for women
professing godliness.  Also proper is women learning in silence with
all submission.  A woman is not permitted to teach or to have authority
over a man. Basing this restriction on the relationship of Adam, Eve,
and the fall, Paul reminds them they can be saved in their natural
role of childbearing if they continue in faith, love, and holiness,
with self-control (9-15).
