What does the Bible say about women speaking in church?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible instructs that women should remain silent in churches and not usurp authority over men.

In 1 Corinthians 14:34-35 and 1 Timothy 2:12, Paul clearly states that women should not speak in the churches but rather be in silence, as they are not permitted to teach or have authority over men. This directive is rooted in the order God established for worship. It is often misunderstood, but the passages show a distinction in roles rather than an assertion of inferiority. This teaching reflects the biblical principle that men are ordained to lead in the assembly while women have vital roles within the Church that do not compromise this order.
