Probably b/c of 1 Corinthians14:34 and 35.
As in all the congregations of the saints, women should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the Law says. If they want to inquire about something, they should ask their own husbands at home; for it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in the church.

Who was she who angered puritan leaders and was forced to leave the Massachusetts bay colony?
You are thinking of Anne Hutchinson. In Puritan times (the early 1600s), women's role was to obey and submit, and they were not supposed to speak in public. But Anne had ideas of her own and even wanted to do some preaching; she believed some of the Puritan ministers were wrong about their interpretation of Christian scripture. She was a threat to the traditionalists, and she was driven out as a result. There are a number of books and essays that have been written about her life, but she certainly tried to expand what women were allowed to do, and she was willing to defend her beliefs, even if it meant being persecuted.
What punishment where uses in puritan women?
Ceremonial Killings were a Puritan thing but if you study carefully the new Puritan's that moved to Massachusetts looking for religious freedom often did use capital punishment such as hangings and stone pressure (victim is tied to the ground and stone slabs mounted on their chest until they cease to breathe). Women were not exempt from such deaths. However, for smaller crimes such as gossiping, Puritans would actually sew the gossiping women's eyes and mouth shut so they could see no evil or speak no evil. Sadly i do not know the exact name of this ritual/punishment.

Why were the voices of women silenced in the Purtian church?
In the Puritan church, women's voices were often silenced due to patriarchal beliefs that viewed men as the spiritual leaders.

This led to limited opportunities for women to speak, teach, or hold leadership roles within the church.

What were Ann Hutchinson's beliefs?
Anne Hutchinson was a devoted student of The Bible which she freely interpreted through the lens of what she referred to as "divine inspiration". She generally adhered to the principles of Puritan orthodoxy except that she had extremely enormously progressive ideas about the equality and rights of women, which was in direct contradiction to both Puritan and established cultural attitudes. She was direct and assertive in proclaiming these beliefs, which caused a clash with the Massachusetts Bay Colony's government, which were accountable to the Church of England (Anglican Church), and with the clergy. So, it wasn't that she was "against" the Puritans, but rather she opposed the Puritan's idea that women were not equal to men.
Should women teach men The Bible?
NO, they can not teach or preach. I am sure some of you do not like my answer. However, take a look at what the Bible says: I Cor. 14:34: Let your women keep SILENCE in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; for it is a shame for women to speak in the church. This is very clear and then read verse 35. This would also refer to preaching in the church, not the building but to believers which is the church.

What were the jobs that puritan men and women did?
Women in Puritan New England made clothing for their families. They also cooked, and cleaned. Since a lot of them weren't educated, they couldn't read, but had to go to church to hear the Lord's word. Men in Puritan New England traditionally farmed, because their lives and their families lives depended on it. If they were not farmers, they probably fished or built shis, depending on their location. Few men were in the religious field (priests).
