"But I want you to understand that the head of every man is Christ, the head of a wife is her husband, and the head of Christ is God. Every man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head, but every wife who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, since it is the same as if her head were shaven."
"For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but woman is the glory of man. For man is not from woman, but woman from man. Nor was man created for the woman, but woman for the man. For this reason the woman ought to have a symbol of authority on her head, because of the angels."
The first time a woman acted without the covering of her husband the fate of the human race was changed. This is why covering is important "because of the angels". These angels are the fallen angels, not the ones who serve the house of God. These angels will leverage the history of a certain woman against a woman who prophesies with her head uncovered. When a man gives way for the woman to prophesy, the outcome is then the responsibility of the man.
woman wasn’t subject to her husband when that happened though women being subject to thier husband is part of the curse of sin
“Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created.”
Genesis 5:2 KJV
a man and his wife become one in Gods eyes
Before sin
“Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and
they shall be one flesh. And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.”
Genesis 2:24-25 KJV
There is no Adam ruling over Eve yet that only came in here
“And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat. Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and
thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.”
Genesis 3:12, 16 KJV
it’s a direct result of sin. Adam wasn’t meant to “ cover “ Eve they were both made in Gods image before sin and to Adam came the curse of death
“And unto Adam he said,
Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, ( just as she heartened to the serpents voice ) and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying,
Thou shalt not eat of it:
cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life; Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field; In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread,
till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.”
Genesis 3:17-19 KJV
because eves subjection is a result of sin , when sin is remitted this happens taking us back to before sin
“For
as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is
neither male nor female: for ye are
all one in Christ Jesus.
And if ye be Christ's, then are
ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.”
Galatians 3:27-29 KJV
that goes for women and men if they are baptized we have to let go of the flesh and curse of sin and it’s results like women being subject to men that’s part of the curse in Christ however women and men have died to the law already for thier sins in the body of Christ , so just as the rest of the curse is removed in baptism so is the subjugation of women to men also being born of sin
Paul seems to blame Eve but clearly God puts everything on Adam because he was first created and Adam and Eve were one at the time being called Adam
only after transgression was Eve named seperately and made subject to him
“Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and
called their name Adam, in the day when they were created.”
Genesis 5:2 KJV
when we get baptized into Christ it’s the beginning of our new creation in his name because going under the water by faith is our death for sin , being raised up from the burial under water is our new birth to God as a new creature not under the prior condemnation or curse make or female this is true for single , married , male , female ect
“Behold,
the former things are come to pass, and
new things do I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them.”
Isaiah 42:9 KJV
“Wherefore
henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more.
Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
And all things are of God, who hath
reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;”
2 Corinthians 5:16-18
The gospel is about sin being remitted and with it sins curse on mankind. I think if our is read carefully you can see his latter epistles evolved as he grew in Christ like we all do .
he was a former Pharisee and they were very Old Testament regarding everything including women I personally feel as is he had a bit of left over prejudice like Peter did also against Gentiles . And in his latter epistles he came into a better understanding
Which would be in his latter epistles that
male and female have no distinction in Christ we’re not in the flesh anymore but born of the spirit . So we shouldn’t live under the same curses of the flesh. Christ took them away.
This of course being applied biblically not literally. Of course men and women have different roles and the value of a women’s roles in a marriage and men’s roles in a marriage of course order of some kind is necassary
I think that when people hear the phrase “ a woman must obey her husband “ or “ the man is the head of the women “ because we don’t have a solid foundation in scriptire , we take those types of things seperately from what’s being communicated
I think once we get into the spirit things of the flesh and old covenant become irrelevant because they are about the flesh
