But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God. Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonoreth his head. But every woman praying or prophesying with her head unveiled dishonoreth her head; for it is one and the same thing as if she were shaven. For if a woman is not veiled, let her also be shorn: but if it is a shame to a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be veiled. For a man indeed ought not to have his head veiled, forasmuch 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: for neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man: for this cause ought the woman to have a sign of authority on her head, because of the angels. Nevertheless, neither is the woman without the man, nor the man without the woman, in the Lord. For as the woman is of the man, so is the man also by the woman; but all things are of God. Judge ye in yourselves: is it seemly that a woman pray unto God unveiled? Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a dishonor to him? But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering. But if any man seemeth to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.

If so, why do so few Christian women do it? Isn't this similar to the laws of the Torah, which Paul teaches abandon?

==Views==* [[Head Covering: Orthodox View | Orthodox View]] Women The issue of whether a woman should cover their heads, including modern women* her hair with a scarf is a minor or non-issue in most Christian churches. However in a few it is considered an important issue given that in [[Head Covering: Contemporary View | Contemporary View1 Corinthians 11]] Women should not cover because Paul's comment* the [[Head Covering: Bushnell View | Bushnell Viewapostle Paul]] The passage is mistranslated and Paul actually forbids all seems to have instructed women to cover their head coverings.
==External Links==* [http://expage.com/page/headcovering Headcovering Directory] Links The mainstream contemporary view is that women do not need to cover their heads, although traditionally in many denominations women have been expected to pages of wear head coverings in the orthodox view church service.
