People's Commentary (NT)
1 Corinthians 11:7
A man indeed ought not to cover [his] head, etc. In this whole
passage we must keep in mind the Eastern ideas of the relations of the
sexes. Paul bases these rules of propriety on the account of their
creation. The veil is a sign of subordination to others present.
He is the image and glory of God. But man has no created superior.
The woman is the glory of the man. She is subordinate to him, of
which the veil is the symbol.
