Covering:Veil or Hair: Part II? Answers Inside

[Aquila]

Paul’s point was that women should be modestly veiled in public worship. Paul then gives four reasons why:

1.) Refusal to adhere to modesty dishonors their husband.

2.) Its shamefully immodest, like a woman having her hair sheered or shaven (penalty for an adulterous woman).

3.) Rebellion brings judgment as we see with the angels that rebelled.

4.) Even nature teaches that a woman should be veiled because it has given her hair for a covering.

[indent]1.) Refusal to adhere to modesty dishonors their husband. ( I would say more to submission or divine order as modesty in many ways is negated in many people minds as optional)

2.) Its shamefully immodest, like a woman having her hair sheered or shaven (penalty for an adulterous woman). (Would not disagree. I would also say here hair is to be long as that is here natural covering of distinction and glory given by God.)

3.) Rebellion brings judgment as we see with the angels that rebelled. ( I don't necessarily disagree but it is up for debate of whether his points was of rebellion on there part of more toward ability to minister)

4.) Even nature teaches that a woman should be veiled because it has given her hair for a covering. ( I would agree see my points on 2)
