What does bible says about woman ?

I also want women to dress modestly, with decency and propriety, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or expensive clothes, but with good deeds, appropriate for women who profess to worship God. A woman should learn in quietness and full submission. I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent. (1 Timothy 2:9-14)



Wives, submit to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord. (Colossians 3:18)



Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you. (Genesis 3:16)



...As in all the congregations of the saints, women should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the Law says. If they want to inquire about something, they should ask their own husbands at home; for it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in the church. (1 Corinthians 14:33-35)



If a man sells his daughter as a servant, she is not to go free as menservants do. If she does not please the master who has selected her for himself, he must let her be redeemed. He has no right to sell her to foreigners, because he has broken faith with her. If he selects her for his son, he must grant her the rights of a daughter. If he marries another woman, he must not deprive the first one of her food, clothing and marital rights. If he does not provide her with these three things, she is to go free, without any payment of money. (Exodus 21:7-11)



"Now kill all the boys. And kill every woman who has slept with a man, but save for yourselves every girl who has never slept with a man." (Numbers 31:17-18)



If ... no proof of the girl's virginity can be found, she shall be brought to the door of her father's house and there the men of the town shall stone her to death. (Deuteronomy 22:20-21)



He [Jesus] answered, "Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery against her. And if she divorces her husband and marries another man, she commits adultery." (Mark 10:11-12)



If a man is found sleeping with another man's wife, both the man who slept with her and the woman must die. (Deuteronomy 22:22)

They are tools to serve men, according to the bible.

What's the question again?

I hear all Christians(ok most that I've been in contact with) get on gays for what they do and swear up and down that its wrong because the bible says so. And it's one-two lines! Never do you hear them say these things, eh? Talk about picking and choosing, its pathetic.



Thumbs up for the 'tools' thing and down for me. Wow. You must be a man.

The harsher verses are from the Old Testament-the Jewish Bible.Only Deuteronomy,Mark,Corinthiains and Timothy are in the New Testament-the Christian part of the bible.To understand the times God was a firm God to the Jews.If the disobeyed God,they were handed in captivity to their enemies or died.However Exodus talks of rights which women have had to fight for and are still fighting for in some parts of the world.It was extremely modern for its time,even when my grandmother married these rights were not seen as rights.It is not only women who have to obey God, but men too.There are many verses requiring men to respect and love their wives.The bible talks of a partnership and one that is compared to the church's relationship and God.Here are some verses-



1 Corinthians 7:4



The wife's body does not belong to her alone but also to her husband. In the same way, the husband's body does not belong to him alone but also to his wife.



Ephesians 5



25Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her 26to make her holy, cleansing[b] her by the washing with water through the word, 27and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. 28In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. 29After all, no one ever hated his own body, but he feeds and cares for it, just as Christ does the church閳?30for we are members of his body. 31"For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh."[c] 32This is a profound mystery閳ユ攤ut I am talking about Christ and the church. 33However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.



Colossians 3



19Husbands, love your wives and do not be harsh with them.



1 Peter 3



7Husbands, in the same way be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with respect as the weaker partner and as heirs with you of the gracious gift of life, so that nothing will hinder your prayers.



1 Corinthians 7



3The husband should fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise the wife to her husband. 4The wife's body does not belong to her alone but also to her husband. In the same way, the husband's body does not belong to him alone but also to his wife. 5Do not deprive each other except by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.



32I would like you to be free from concern. An unmarried man is concerned about the Lord's affairs閳ユ攬ow he can please the Lord. 33But a married man is concerned about the affairs of this world閳ユ攬ow he can please his wife閳?34and his interests are divided.



Timothy talks of a woman who is plainly and modestly dressed and professing as a christian,does not shame God.Titus 2 (3Likewise, teach the older women to be reverent in the way they live, not to be slanderers or addicted to much wine, but to teach what is good. 4Then they can train the younger women to love their husbands and children, 5to be self-controlled and pure, to be busy at home, to be kind, and to be subject to their husbands, so that no one will malign the word of God. ) gives older women the responsibilty of guiding younger women.



As for your Deuteronomy and Numbers verses Jesus swept that all away in John 8



1But Jesus went to the Mount of Olives. 2At dawn he appeared again in the temple courts, where all the people gathered around him, and he sat down to teach them. 3The teachers of the law and the Pharisees brought in a woman caught in adultery. They made her stand before the group 4and said to Jesus, "Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery. 5In the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?" 6They were using this question as a trap, in order to have a basis for accusing him.



But Jesus bent down and started to write on the ground with his finger. 7When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, "If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her." 8Again he stooped down and wrote on the ground.



9At this, those who heard began to go away one at a time, the older ones first, until only Jesus was left, with the woman still standing there. 10Jesus straightened up and asked her, "Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?"



11"No one, sir," she said.



"Then neither do I condemn you," Jesus declared. "Go now and leave your life of sin."

While I have great faith, and believe in christian beliefs, this is one thing I do not agree with. Obviously, now it is very old fashioned. Women are obviously people. I dress conservatively, but nicely! Pearls are just fine with me. I believe in being 100% faithful to my boyfriend, and eventually husband, but some ideas about women the bible presents are not right.
