  8. 1 Tim. 2:9, the apparel “In like manner also, that the women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with propriety and moderation…” • Adorn: to put in order, arrange. • Apparel: clothing • Modest: to put in order, arrange: “dress modestly”(NRSV) • Propriety: shamefastness

  9. Propriety “The word connotes fem. reserve in matters of sex. In the word is involved an innate moral repugnance to the doing of the dishonorable. It is ‘shamefast-ness’ which shrinks from transgressing the limits of womanly reserve and modesty, as well as from dishonor which would justly attach thereto” (R-R, 490f.)

  10. Propriety… means ‘shame,’ ‘modesty,’ the capacity to feel ashamed if you act wrongly to others; hence, respect for others and their rights. It contains an element of fear – men behave well through fear of what others may think of them if they do not.” The “shame-culture” is everywhere apparent in Homer – the heroes must not “lose face”(JACT)

  14. 1 Tim.2:9, the apparel1 Tim.2:10, the attitude “But, which is proper for women profes-sing godliness, with good works” • Proper: to be fitting or becoming, to suit (matches the claim of godliness) • Godliness: 1 Co.12:23-24 • The Merit Report
