Stan Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 From what I understand.. In the Jewish culture, women were not allowed to go into the temple. Paul said women could go in, a HUGE step, but to keep quite, I repeat this was a HUGE step.. the Question is..... why could not that develop? AM sure he would have been challenged on the new, dangerous move.. Thoughts?

Not positive that its a Jewish site, but will continue to search. http://www.letusreason.org/pent45.htm Quote phkrause When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan.

To the altar? To the Holy Place? To the Most Holy Place? Quote
ClubV12 Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 Oh,,, that brings up a question I never thought of before, Ron. Who WAS allowed in the Holy and Most Holy place FOLLOWING the crucifixion? Previously only the Priests would enter the Holy Place. The Most Holy place, only the High Priest. Aside for that specific question, I get the impression there were a number of places of worship scattered around the city where Sabbath keepers would assemble to worship. It wasn't only the Temple itself where they met on Sabbath. So, is Paul talking about the Temple itself or inclusive of all places of worship? We know today the Muslims still separate women from men when it comes to worship in their Temples (Mosques or whatever). I wonder how that worked in Jesus' time? CoEd, or not? Quote

Previously only the Priests would enter the Holy Place. The Most Holy place, only the High Priest. As far as I know, the rules for the Temple in Jerusalem didn't change following the death of Messiah. The author of Hebrews says the OT laws about who could be a priest in the Jerusalem Temple were still valid at the time Hebrews was written. Quote
