Yeshua Empowered Women — Paul Tried to Silence Them
Paul said women should be silent—but Yeshua welcomed women as disciples, teachers, and witnesses of truth. This page reveals how Greek and Roman influence crept into the faith through Paul’s writings, contradicting the example set by Yeshua Himself. From Mary Magdalene to the Samaritan woman, women were empowered to speak, teach, and lead. Let’s return to the real Gospel where YHWH calls both men and women to serve.
🔻 1 Timothy 2:12 (Paul writing):
“I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet.”
Then in other places, Paul seems to allow women to prophesy or lead (like in Romans 16) — yet still contradicts himself.
This confusion did not come from Yeshua.
✅ Yeshua Had Female Disciples and Gave Them a Voice
🔹 Luke 8:1–3
Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Susanna, and “many others” followed Him and supported His ministry.
🔹 John 4 – The Samaritan Woman
Yeshua teaches a woman, gives her deep spiritual truth, and she becomes a messenger to her village.
“Many of the Samaritans... believed in Him because of the woman’s testimony.”
(John 4:39)
🔹 Mary Magdalene – The First Witness of the Resurrection
Yeshua chose a woman to be the first to see Him after rising from the dead.
He told her:
“Go and tell My brothers” (John 20:17) — That’s teaching!
🔥 The Truth:
Paul’s teachings reflect Greek-Roman culture, not Hebrew truth.
Yeshua gave honor, voice, and spiritual authority to women.
The early followers of Yeshua included women as disciples, leaders, and messengers of the Word.
