哥林多前书 11:10 RCUVSS

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - 1 Corinthians 11:1-34

The Teachings of Nature 1Co 11:14 The Apostle is speaking about a particular subject; it is of no interest to us: but the principle which he lays down is of perpetual value and application. I wish to lure you into two or three simple admissions. The church in which we assemble built itself. I want you to admit that simple statement to be true. No human hand touched it; whether it came down, or whether it rose up from the earth, it is impossible to say; but precisely as it now stands it was... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - 1 Corinthians 11:1-16

(1) Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ. (2) Now I praise you, brethren, that ye remember me in all things, and keep the ordinances, as I delivered them to you. (3) 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. (4) Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonoreth his head. (5) But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoreth her head: for... read more

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - 1 Corinthians 11:10

A power: That is, a veil or covering, as a sign that she is under the power of her husband: and this, the apostle adds, because of the angels, who are present in the assemblies of the faithful. (Challoner) read more

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - 1 Corinthians 11:2-16

2-16 Here begin particulars respecting the public assemblies, ch. 1 Corinthians 11:1. In the abundance of spiritual gifts bestowed on the Corinthians, some abuses had crept in; but as Christ did the will, and sought the honour of God, so the Christian should avow his subjection to Christ, doing his will and seeking his glory. We should, even in our dress and habit, avoid every thing that may dishonour Christ. The woman was made subject to man, because made for his help and comfort. And she... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - 1 Corinthians 11:1-99

1Co 11 THE FRESH PARAGRAPH begins with verse 1Co_11:2 , which stands in very direct contrast with verse 17. The Apostle had referred to the institution of the Lord’s Supper in 1Co 10.0 , as we have seen; and there had been grave disorders in connection with it, demanding very heavy censure. However there were certain matters as to which he could praise them. So first he utters a word of praise. Certain “ordinances,” or “directions,” had been given to them, and they had remembered Paul and... read more

Paul E. Kretzmann

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - 1 Corinthians 11:7-12

The apostle advances a further argument for the woman's veiling: v. 7. For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, forasmuch, as he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of the man. v. 8. For the man is not of the woman, but the woman of the man. v. 9. Neither was the man created for the woman, but the woman for the man. v. 10. For this cause ought the woman to have power on her head because of the angels. v. 11. Nevertheless, neither is the man without the... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - 1 Corinthians 11:2-10

Covering the Head 1 Corinthians 11:2-10 No soul is complete in itself. The man is not complete apart from Christ, as the woman is not complete apart from man. As God is the head of the nature of Jesus on its human side, so must Jesus be head of man, and man of woman. But in each case the headship is not one of authority and rule, but of the impartation of resources of love, wisdom, and strength, without which the best cannot be realized. The covered head of woman in our sanctuaries as... read more

G. Campbell Morgan

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - 1 Corinthians 11:1-34

Another Corinthian question concerned the position of woman and her true attitude in the exercise of divinely bestowed gifts. He declared that woman's true position is subservience to man. The nature of that subservience, however, the apostle was also very careful to indicate. God is equal with Christ. God co-operates with Christ. God is the Head of Christ. Then follows a touch of purely local color. The women in Corinth itself, whose heads were shaven and went uncovered, were women of shame.... read more

James Nisbet

James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - 1 Corinthians 11:10

THE FEMALE HEAD-DRESS‘Power on her head because of the angels.’ 1 Corinthians 11:10 The little section of the First Epistle to the Corinthians in which St. Paul deals with the question of the retention or disuse of the female head-dress in the public assemblies of Christian worship, is eminently characteristic of his style and method. It appears that in the Church at Corinth some women had occasioned scandal by dispensing with the pephlum, or shawl, with which, from time immemorial, Grecian... read more
