***I meant to ping you to 1306***

I have been in small churches where there were no adult men to officiate or were not willing to officiate. Then the women took over.

When qualified men came into the church the women voluntarily stepped down.

“I here instanced Huldah and Deborah.”

Here is another...

Luk 2:36 And there was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Aser: she was of a great age, and had lived with an husband seven years from her virginity;

And possibly..

Rom 16:12 Salute Tryphena and Tryphosa, who labour in the Lord. Salute the beloved Persis, which laboured much in the Lord.

I can't help but think Paul's admonition against women teachers was specifically for the Corinthian church as Timothy later became the overseer of that church.
