☀️ [Continuing, addressing questions the Corinthian believers had sent in a letter] 1 - Be imitators of me [Paul], as I am of Christ. 2 I’m happy that you’ve been keeping the instructions and traditions as I handed them on to you.
3 Custom tells us the head of a wife is her husband, the head of every man is Christ, and the head of Christ is God. 4 Every man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head, 5 but every wife who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, since it’s the same as if her head were shaved. 6 Yes, if she refuses to wear a head covering, she should cut off all her hair! But since it’s shameful for a woman to have her hair cut or her head shaved, she should wear a covering. 7 A man should not wear anything on his head when worshiping, for man is made in God’s image and reflects God’s glory. And woman reflects man’s glory. 8 For man is not of woman, but woman of man. 9 And also was a man not created because of the woman, but a woman because of the man. 10 That is why a wife ought to have a symbol of authority on her head, because of the angels. {Protection?} [Exousia - authority, power, right, jurisdiction, from exesti - what is allowed or permissible under the law or custom.] {Paul also wrote “..there is neither Jew nor Greek.. male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus” - Gal.3:28. Genesis 5:2 - “God created them male and female, and named them Adam [adam - man, mankind]”.}
