29 As for the prophets, let two or three of them speak, while the rest sit in judgement on their prophecies. 30 If some revelation comes to another who is sitting by, let him who spoke first keep silence; 31 there is room for you all to prophesy one by one, so that the whole company may receive instruction and comfort; 32 and it is for the prophets to exercise control over their own spiritual gifts. 33 God is the author of peace, not of disorder; such is the teaching I give in all the churches of the saints. 34 And women are to be silent in the churches; utterance is not permitted to them; let them keep their rank, as the law tells them: 35 if they have any question to raise, let them ask their husbands at home. That a woman should make her voice heard in the church is not seemly. 36 Tell me, was it from you that God’s word was sent out? Are you the only people it has reached? 37 If anybody claims to be a prophet, or to have spiritual gifts, let him prove it by recognizing that this message of mine to you is God’s commandment. 38 If he does not recognize it, he himself shall receive no recognition. 39 Set your hearts, then, brethren, on prophesying; and as for speaking with strange tongues, do not interfere with it. 40 Only let us have everything done suitably, and with right order.

Thanks. Interesting. Why do use it over so many others?
