Hair and Nature?
What does Paul mean by "Nature"?
the NET bible commentary says
1Co 11:14 Does not nature itself teach you that if a man wears long hair it is a disgrace for him,
5 sn Paul does not mean nature in the sense of "the natural world" or "Mother Nature." It denotes "the way things are" because of God's design.
So..
1Co 11:14 Does not the way things are because of God's design itself teach you that if a man wears long hair it is a disgrace for him,
