1 Timothy 2:10

But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works.

Professing, [ epangellomenais (G1861)] - promising; engaging to follow.

With [ dia (G1223 ): through] good works. Their adorning is to be effected by means of good works: not that they are to be clothed in, or with (1 Timothy 2:9) them (Ephesians 2:10). Works, not words in public, is their province (1 Timothy 2:8; 1 Timothy 2:11; 1 Peter 3:1). Works are often mentioned in the pastoral letters, to oppose the loose living, combined with loose doctrine, of the false teachers. Everyday duties are honoured with the designation "good works."
