OT-PROPHET.filter - rwp long-haired:

rwp@1Corinthians:11:15 @{Have long hair} (\komi\). Present active subjunctive of \koma\ (from \kom\, hair), old verb, same contraction (\-ai=i\) as the indicative (\aei = i\), but subjunctive here with \ean\ in third class condition. Long hair is a glory to a woman and a disgrace to a man (as we still feel). The long-haired man! There is a papyrus example of a priest accused of letting his hair grow long and of wearing woollen garments. {For a covering} (\anti peribolaiou\). Old word from \periball\ to fling around, as a mantle (Hebrews:1:12|) or a covering or veil as here. It is not in the place of a veil, but answering to (\anti\, in the sense of \anti\ in strkjv@John:1:16|), as a permanent endowment (\dedotai\, perfect passive indicative).
