John F. MacArthur Jr. Quote

Timothy was to instruct the women to adorn themselves with proper clothing. Adorn is from kosmiø (), from which we derive our English word cosmetic. It means to arrange, to put in order, or to make ready. A woman must prepare herself properly for the worship service. Part of that preparation involves the wearing of proper clothing. Proper comes from kosmeø (), the adjectival form of kosmiø (), and could be translated well-ordered. The Greek word translated clothing encompasses not only clothing but also demeanor and action.
