Part 3 of 3 The word usurp mean to take or seize by force to encroach or infringe upon someone s rights to seize and hold as office, place, or powers in possession by force or without right. If a woman is given the right to teach or preach then this is alright, but if she takes by force the position, in this case over her husband then she is wrong. In the end, Paul is not telling the women they cannot teach, preach, pastor, or evangelize, etc. There is only two positions that Paul distinctly stated that should be held by men and that is Bishop and Deacon.
