tcent - 1Corinthians:11:2-16

tcent@1Corinthians:11:2 @ I praise you because you remember me in everything and hold firmly to the traditions, just as I delivered them to you.

tcent@1Corinthians:11:3 @ But I want you to understand that Christ is the head of every man, and the man is the head of a woman, and God is the head of Christ.

tcent@1Corinthians:11:4 @ Every man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head.

tcent@1Corinthians:11:5 @ But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her headit is the same as if her head were shaved.

tcent@1Corinthians:11:6 @ For if a woman does not cover her head, she should have her hair cut off; but if it is disgraceful for a woman to have her hair cut or shaved off, let her cover her head.

tcent@1Corinthians:11:7 @ For a man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man.

tcent@1Corinthians:11:8 @ For man does not originate from woman, but woman from man;

tcent@1Corinthians:11:9 @ neither was man created for woman, but woman for man.

tcent@1Corinthians:11:10 @ Therefore the woman ought to have a symbol of authority on her head, because of the angels.

tcent@1Corinthians:11:11 @ In the Lord, however, woman is not independent of man, nor is man independent of woman.

tcent@1Corinthians:11:12 @ For as woman was made from man, so also man is born of woman. And all things are from God.

tcent@1Corinthians:11:13 @ Judge for yourselves: is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered?

tcent@1Corinthians:11:14 @ Does not even nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a dishonor to him,

tcent@1Corinthians:11:15 @ but if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For her hair is given to her for a covering.

tcent@1Corinthians:11:16 @ If anyone wants to be contentious, we have no other practice, nor do the churches of God.
