| '''Comments'''
|-
| The first verse of this chapter seems properly to be the close to the last so why is head covering of important. Is this covering like that of the [[breeches]] of the [[Levites]]?
|-
| In Christianity "the head of every man is [[Christ]]" which is why "the head of every man is Christ."
|-
| [[1 Corinthians 4]]:15 "For though ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet [have ye] not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel." 
|-
| Though "the covering of the head being a token of subjection" female slave often wore their hair short or even shaved. It was also common for a free woman to cut her hair when her father or husband died or the whole family suffered a misfortune and there sons would let their hair grow long, both as a sign of mourning.<Ref>“Why do sons cover their head when they escort their parents to the grave, while daughters go  with uncovered heads and hair unbound? …. is it that the unusual is proper in mourning, and it is more usual for women to go forth in public with their heads covered and men with their heads uncovered? So in Greece, whenever any misfortune comes, the women cut off their hair and the men let it grow, for it is usual for men to have their hair cut and for women to let it grow.” (267 A-B)</Ref>
|-
| Is Paul talking about hair covering or playing down things that are causing ''division''?
|-
| In verses 17 and 18 he seems to be making it clear that "in this" Paul ''declared'' that he ''praised them not'' because there were  ''divisions'' among them.
|-
| He says that it can be valuable to have [[heresies]] among you so that "they which are approved may be made manifest".
|-
| The kings of Israel did not wear a covering or crown but were anointed, "his head covered, dishonoureth his head" it is because he is covering [[Christ]] and His [[anoint]]ing.
|-
| '''Questions'''
|-
| Is all this talk about covering and authority really about pride and who should get the glory or honor? Is he talking about hats and scarfs of vanity and pride?

== Be Ye followers of Christ ==


1 ¶  Be ye followers<Ref>{{3402}}</Ref> 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,<Ref>{{3862}}</Ref> 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, dishonoureth his head.
5  But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven.
6  For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.
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.
8  For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man.
9  Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.
10  For this cause ought the woman to have power<Ref>{{1849}}</Ref> on her head because of the angels.<Ref>{{32}}</Ref> 
11  Nevertheless neither is the man without<Ref>{{5565}}</Ref>  the woman, neither the woman without the man, in the Lord.
12  For as the woman is of the man, even so is the man also by the woman; but all things of God.
13  Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered?
14  Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?
15  But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering.
16  But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.

==  Not to eat the Lord’s supper ==

17 ¶  Now in this that I declare unto you I praise you not, that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse.
18  For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that there be divisions<Ref name="dividel">{{dividel}}</Ref> among you; and I partly believe it.
19  For there must be also [[Heresy|heresies]] among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you.
20  When ye come together therefore into one place, this is not to eat the Lord’s supper.
21  For in eating every one taketh before other his own supper: and one is hungry, and another is drunken.
22  What? have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise ye the church of God, and shame them that have not? What shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I praise you not.

== The unworthy, eateth and drinketh damnation ==

23 ¶  For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread:
24  And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.
25  After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.
26  For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord’s death till he come.
27  Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.
28  But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup.
29  For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord’s body.
30  For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.
31  For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.
32  But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.
33  Wherefore, my brethren, when ye come together to eat, tarry one for another.
34  And if any man hunger, let him eat at home; that ye come not together unto condemnation. And the rest will I set in order when I come.
