The Watchtower (study edition), “Do You Treat Women as Jehovah Does?”

janeiro de 2024 · pp.15-18 · Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania

“He did not make men more intelligent or more talented than women; nor does he prefer men to women. (2 Chron. 19:7) He created men and women with the same mental capacity to grasp Bible truths and to reflect his beautiful qualities.”

A study article addressed to men. It opens by saying that some men were raised in cultures that treat women as inferior, and that other men ‘show their prejudice against women in less obvious ways’, for example by telling demeaning jokes about women. It tells elders to commend women, to listen to them and to train them, and closes by quoting an elder in Scotland named Benjamin. The magazine prints his two sentences with its own attribution standing between them, and they are given here as printed: ‘The world’s view of women can be very demeaning,’ says an elder in Scotland named Benjamin. ‘So when women walk into a Kingdom Hall, we want them to feel the difference.’

Notes. On p. 17 the article asks whether 1 Peter 3:7 ('a weaker vessel') means a wife is 'inferior—less intelligent or capable—than a man' and answers 'By no means!' This is the organisation's current published position on women's capabilities.
