In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with decency and propriety; not with braided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;
All Commentaries on 1 Timothy 2:9 Go To 1 Timothy 2
John Chrysostom
AD 407
Equally with men, women are called to approach God without wrath or doubting, lifting up holy hands, not following their own desires, nor being covetous or rapacious…. Paul however requires something more of women, that they adorn themselves “in modest apparel, with selfeffacement and sobriety” … such attire as covers them completely, and decently, not with superfluous ornaments, for the one is becoming, the other is not.
