Peter, nearing the end of his ministry writes for God this inspired snapshot of what a gorgeous woman in God's sight looks like. Its a timeless, never out of style, supracultural absolute. This is what a woman of god has always looked like. But watch out it is very different from the woman of the nineties, the woman of vogue, cosmopolitan, victorian and so on. It cuts against the grain of culture and society. Well, what does god say a woman of godly virtue is to be? He gives a four part look:
1. V. 1-2 in her actions she lines up with god's plan for the church and the home. Thus, she is submissive.
2. V. 3 in her adornment she looks like a woman in whom the holy spirit dwells, thus she is modest.
3. V.4 in her attitude she longs to offer god what he is looking for. Thus, she is gentle and quiet.
4. V.5-6 in her attention she is focused on the home. Thus, she is feminine.
Now, lets go thru these verses and see the Word of God explaining these truths.
