What does it mean to "exercise authority"?

In the comments on the last post, I referred to Wayne Grudem's Evangelical Feminism and Biblical Truth. I would highly recommend this book to all pastors. It is a gold mine!

Also, you can read the entire book online here.

If you are following the discussion of what Paul meant by "exercise authority" in 1 Tim. 2:12, go to page 84 and begin reading Grudem's lists. Keep reading until you get to the part where he actually draws a line as to where he would stand on what a women can do and what a women cannot do in the church. Also, read his discussion of this word later in the book.
