• 1 Cor 11:3-9 : 3 But I want you to know that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God. 4 Every man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head. 5 But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, for that is the same as if she were shaved. 6 For if a woman is not covered, let her be shorn; but if it is a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her be covered. 7 For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, because he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of the man. 8 For the man is not from the woman, but the woman from the man. 9 Nor was the man created for the woman, but the woman for the man. 10 For this reason the woman ought to have authority on her head, because of the angels.
