# Connecting Statement:
Paul finishes his instructions on prayer then gives some special instructions for women.
# I want men in every place to pray and to lift up holy hands
Here "holy hands" means the entire person is holy. Alternate translation: "I want men in every place who are holy to lift up their hands and pray" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])
# men in every place
"the males in all places" or "the males everywhere." Here the word "men" refers specifically to males.
# lift up holy hands
It was a normal posture for people to raise their hands while praying.
