1 Corinthians 11:3-16 is submission to the God-given order and "chain of command." A "covering" on a woman's head is used as an illustration of the order, headship, and the authority of God. The key verse of this passage is 1 Corinthians 11:3"But I want you to know that the head of every man is Christ, the head of woman is man, and the head of Christ is God." The implications of this verse are found in the rest of the passage. The order is: God the Father, God the Son, the man or husband, and the woman or wife. The veil or covering on the head of a believing wife showed that she was under the authority of her husband, and therefore under submission to God.
Within this passage is also verse 10: "For this reason the woman ought to have a symbol of authority on her head, because of the angels." Why is that important to angels? The relationship of God with men is something that angels watch and learn from ( 1 Peter 1:12). cc lalasticlala,obinoscopy.

and when u read downwards it said that the covering of the hair signifies respect to her husband, and the bible says GOD looks into decency and not braided hair.

typical nairaland post every sunday. have come to realise that most Nigerians like posting pics on sunday n so does Nairalanders love creating thread about Church/God on sunday.. back to d topic am were to c bible study student crack their brain..

I'm yet to be convinced whether or not to cover my head abi hair when going to church. For now, I do both.

Maybe I should ask these question: What's really the essence of covering the hair/head to church?

Should it be only in the church that a woman should cover her head?

Does praying without hair covering implies no answers to prayers?

Moreover, 99% of sisters cover their hair partially to church. (Abi you wan spend 10k make hair and no brother go see am for church ni) Is this wrong? I believe that Partial Obedience is No Obedience

Please someone should respond.

Hair is the glory and pride of a woman. A man is the head of a woman so she is to cover her hair with a veil as a honour to the man. 1cor11:5-6.
