Long before Jesus’ time, discrimination of the women began during the Babylonian captivity or shortly afterward when the Jews returned from the dispersion under Persian King, Cyrus. The decline of women in Israel was always due to the invasion of heathen influence.
Or according to the book of Josephus, women cannot be witnesses. By the 3rd century women were usually barred from the priesthood. By the 4th century, the female deacon (deaconess) had been removed from God’s service all together. (See Council of Orange)
