Jerry Lynn Hayes Follow · December 19, 2014 · Edited · What is the TRUE Apostolic teaching on the Christian woman's headcovering? (Post XV) FOUR SPIRITUAL AND SCRIPTURAL ARGUMENTS (1 Corinthians 11: 7-10)  In verses 7 through 10 of 1 Corinthians 11 the Apostle presents his argumentation for the headcovering, and the order of headship that the headcovering represents. As we continue, it will become clear to the reader that these arguments are at once spiritual and scriptural. We will proceed in our examination of this passage by using verse 10 as the pivotal point for the text:“For this cause ought the woman to have power on her head because of the angels” (verse 10). “For This Cause.” The statement “for this cause” is with the accusative case in the Greek language, which indicates the cause or reason of the act. The “act” in this situation is that the women ought to be covered. “For this cause,” refers to the preceding statements in verses 7 through 9, and also includes the cause given in verse 10; namely, “because of the angels.” The Bible states in this passage (verses 7-9) that the man, indeed, “Ought not to cover his head for in as much as he is the image and glory of God, but the woman is the glory of the man; for the man is not of the woman but the woman of the man. Neither was the man created for the woman but the woman for the man. For this cause ... because of the angels.” My friends, this is what the Bible is teaching. As much as this may rub our fur the wrong way, or ruffle our feathers, we must, as mature Christians, submit our conscience to the Word of God. As we look closely at these verses, there are four arguments given in support for the injunction for the Christian woman to have her head covered in the place of meeting. Argument one: She is the glory of the man; Argument two: She was created from the man; Argument three: She was created for the benefit of the man; Argument four: She should be covered because of the angels. We will proceed to examine these causes in a close manner.
