초록

First Timothy 2:15 is the ending verse of the paragraph in which the author of the Pastoral Epistles gave two orders about the right attitude during the service to women in the church in Ephesus. He based the second order (v. 11-12) on the story of the creation and the fall (v. 13-14). The sin of Eve who was tempted by the serpent has sealed the fate of women since Eve that they are responsible for the fall of the mankind and also much inferior to men. This was a theological problem because it has been thought that women cannot be saved or that their salvation can be threatened. The author had to remove this misunderstanding and/or charge.
The main sentence (=apodosis) of v. 15 shows a very extraordinary statement that women are saved by childbearing. But the problem is that this statement does not match the soteriology of Paul and of the author of the Pastoral Epistles who is succeeding Paul’s theology. The purpose of this study is to reexamine the meaning of the expressions of the apodosis and protasis and to find a grammatically, linguistically, and theologically right interpretation. Specially, unlike the tendency to give too much weight on the apodosis (or the prepositional clause in the apodosis), the importance and meaning of the protasis let us verify that the author did not claim salvation of women by childbirth but through religious life in faith, which is completely in agreement with the soteriology of Paul and that of the author who faithfully follows Paul’s theological tradition.
