Genesis 3: 16

Jehovah was irate and displeased with the woman, so divine justice dictated that she be punished (We have free will to choose to do sin and evil, but there will be consequences, sometimes in this world, and sometimes in the afterlife. We are free but either we work with and for God, or we do not, and God rewards or punishes us accordingly.). Here is what Yahweh said to the woman (from my 1970 The New American Bible): To the woman he said: "'I will intensify the pangs of your childbearing; in pain you shall bring forth children. Yet your urge shall be for your husband, and he shall be your master.' This may seem like divinely sanctioned punishment to modern feminists and will enrage radical feminists. All sorts of mammals endure the pangs of childbearing, and we as mammalian creatures, our women will endure the same, so this may be less of a punishment than God's observing the obvious--that women bring life into the world, and much suffering, pain and sacrifice are the price paid for bringing a lovely child into the world. Women live, and women die, but without women, wives and mothers, there is no continuation of our species. Women are meant to marry and bear children--that is not their entire career, but it is a huge part of it. Within the tribal, nomadic culture of the ancient Hebrews, under that patriarchy, women feel and natural sexual drive and urge to cleave to their spouse--and vice versa--for procreation and pleasure--and men there were the masters of women. Now, in the time of Mavellonialism when women and men are invited by the Divine Couple to maverize as individuals and living angels, men are not the masters of the women that they are married to; they are partners, coequals, that walk side by side, hand in hand, in mutual love, respect and affection. Here is verse 16 from the Holy Bible (KJV): "Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee."
