1Co 11:10 For this cause ought the woman to have power on her head because of the angels.
IF you will read 'the appointment of' after the words 'because of', you
will get Paul's idea. Paul is referring to the original position of woman as a reason
for the covering of her head in public assembly. This original position was regulated
by the ministry of the angels, in whose image Adam was made.
As the 'woman is the glory of the man,' 'created for the man,' and 'out of the
man,' Paul contended that the liberty contended for by some in his day who were
in favor of woman appearing on a level with man, in appearing bareheaded with
him in acts of 'praying and prophesying,' was inconsistent with the originally-expressed
will of God by the angels, & contrary to natural decency. -February, 1891
