Men » Men being the head of women
Wives, be submissive to your own husbands, as to the Lord, because the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ is also the head of the church, being himself the saviour of the body.
But I praise you because you remember me in all things, and hold fast the commandments, as I delivered them unto you. But I wish you to know, that Christ is the head of every man; and the man is the head of the woman, and God is the head of Christ. Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonors his head. read more.
But every woman praying or prophesying with her head uncovered dishonors her head: for that is one and the same to her being shaven. If a woman is not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it is a disgrace for a woman to be shorn or shaven; let her be covered. For a man ought not to cover his head, being the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of the man. For the man is not from the woman; but the woman is from the man; for man indeed was not created on account of the woman; but the woman on account of the man. Therefore the woman ought to have authority on her head, on account of the angels. Moreover neither is the woman without the man in the Lord, nor the man without the woman. For as the woman is from the man, so the man also is by the woman; and all things from God. Judge ye among yourselves: is it becoming for a woman to pray to God uncovered? Does not nature itself teach you, that, if a man may indeed have long hair, it is a dishonor to him? But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory unto her: because the hair has been given to her for a covering. If any one seems to be contentious, we have no such custom, nor do the churches of God.
