Thank you Kosta - I went to the commentary and found it interesting. However, it was interpreted in a certain way and the interpretation I have is not the same.

We both believe we have the correct one and I truly don't think it is worth an argument. If you believe that a woman should have her head covered I don't see any problem with it. Neither belief harms our love of Christ.

As far as women not teaching in public I can't agree with. I think it goes against God's Word when He said His sons and daughters would prophesy.

The "fallen" angels are from Gen.6:2, 2Peter 2:4 and Jude 6. Why would a woman need "power on her head" because of good angels?

Thanks Ping-pong. It is clear that our commenatries are just that — human interpretations.

The "fallen" angels are from Gen.6:2, 2Peter 2:4 and Jude 6. Why would a woman need "power on her head" because of good angels?

There are no fallen angels in Church. According to Paul, a woman needs power on her head the way angels need it in front of God. Paul does not consider men and women to be equal in their roles and standing before God. He says that man is the head of a woman, as Christ is the head of man.

Call it sexist, or whatever, but it's in the Bible. We can't just dismiss it because we don't like it.
