1 Corinthians 11:5-7
5 but every wife ▼
▼
In verses 5–13, the Greek word gunē is translated wife in verses that deal with wearing a veil, a sign of being married in first-century culture
who prays or b prophesies c with her head uncovered dishonors her head, since it is the same d as if her head were shaven. 6 For if a wife will not cover her head, then she should cut her hair short. But since it is disgraceful for a wife to cut off her hair or shave her head, let her cover her head. 7 For a man ought not to cover his head, since e he is the image and glory of God, but f woman is the glory of man.
