The polemic is originally against the woman who cuts here hair.
1st Corinthians 11:15 follows the idea concerning nature. He sure isn't talking about spiders and snakes. The Greek word for nature is pointing to the creation in the Garden. Plato used the word to describe the primordial world. Here we see it employed by the Roman Judean Shaul Paulous. Showing that if man allowed his hair to grow that he would wear the sign of the submissive, instead but if a woman has long hair, it is to her glory?
1st Corinthians 11:15
For growing hair instead of a covering is given to her.
of the woman who wore it as a glory.
Jerome understood this passage to mean that a woman's growing hair was her covering glory. Therefore he employed the Latin word which we use today as nurture.
