That is the White Man's mis-educating Black folk on this topic.

The Bible refers to women 'being silent' within context. It would be a contradiction to have the priesthood headed up by a woman because the priesthood is supposed to function as protectors of women and children [ie. the Church] and, this would also be regarding war as well. Today we live in a world with the dependency on guns, but if this was not available, a woman cannot defend a bunch of vulnerable women and children from attack. Therefore, to effeminize men and have them not in the position of a specific kind of power would not be good.

 

But there are so many other scriptures that show women are blessed to be in politics [ie. Debra the Judge] teachers and professors in various subject areas, prophetesses mentioned throughout the Bible, obviously are blessed to SPEAK in the church. So, this topic has been taken out of context to suit the slave system.

 

The very purpose of PASSOVER in Egypt and later during the Roman Empire was due to SLAVERY NOT BEING CONDONED!!! Again, White Supremacist conditioning and furthered by Black people who have been deceived by these false interpretations. The SINS of the Israelites were PASSED OVER but not the Egyptians due to the Egyptian system benefiting from FREE LABOR [ie HARD BONDAGE]--- HUMAN SACRIFICE. 

The Abrahamic religions (Judaism, Christianity, Islam) tend to be patriarchal in nature.

The Abrahamic concept is founded in the Caucasian mistrust of their own women because they feared if women had too much power and freedom they'd start choosing the men THEY found attractive and wanted to sleep with instead of being forced to be with men out of dependence.....which could ultimately mean they'd choose Black men.
Look at the Kardashians and other wealthy Caucasian women who openly choose Black men and other men of color as sexual partners.
When women have money and independence they then have the freedom to choose who THEY want, and a lot of men in power don't like that.


This is one of the reasons why unlike traditional African and Native American cultures where women tended to have more freedom, in Caucasian cultures and religions women have been suppressed and in many cases demonized.
