Here's the Amplified version of the passage. In most churches, the pastor assumes the role of spiritual leader, but there could be several spiritual leaders in each congregation.
Hebrews 13:17 Amplified Bible (AMP)
17Obey your spiritual leaders and submit to them [continually recognizing their authority over you], for they are constantly keeping watch over your souls and guarding your spiritual welfare, as men who will have to render an account [of their trust]. [Do your part to] let them do this with gladness and not with sighing and groaning, for that would not be profitable to you [either].

The Amplified Version is not a literal translation
The Amplified Bible was the first Bible project of The Lockman Foundation. It attempts to take both word meaning and context into account in order to accurately translate the original text from one language into another. The Amplified Bible does this through the use of explanatory alternate readings and amplifications to assist the reader in understanding what Scripture really says. Multiple English word equivalents to each key Hebrew and Greek word clarify and amplify meanings that may otherwise have been concealed by the traditional translation method. The Amplified Bible present on the Bible Gateway matches the 1987 printing.

Re: Pastors
why do pastors want to control what people wear anyway?
I attend a upc. The pastor never touches on this stuff and everyone looks old time pennycost.

Thank you, who does the Pastor obey?
