1 Timothy
Chapter 2
Verse 9

1 Timothy 2:9

Read in parallel →

In the same way, that women also adorn themselves in decent clothing, with modesty and propriety, not with braided hair, gold, pearls, or expensive clothing,^ᵃ^ᵇ

^ᵃnote:The word for “not” is the negative particle “μη” which denies an expected idea, as opposed to the usual word for “not” (ου) which denies a fact. Thus “μη” in this context is denying an expected idea (that women can be properly dressed without good works).
