Hi Flomason,
It would be helpful if you give us some idea of the subject of your study. Most people aren't going to click on the link, because it looks for all the world like unimportant clickbait. If it's a short piece, just post the content directly. If it's more than about thirty lines, post a short summary.

I don't click on unknown links. Can you provide a short synapsis on the content? Glad to have you onboard with us. Welcome to CC.
Precious friend, Flomason, I personally see no reason for a "deeper study" on
the teaching of "head covering," as the Final 3 verses sums up the matter:
1Co 11:14 Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?
1Co 11:15 But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering. {Thus NO NEED to "wear ANOTHER covering on her head" as that would be a "ritual/ceremony" NOT NEEDED, Today, Under GRACE, and,
thus, NO fighting Nor Contention about the matter, Either}:
1Co 11:16 But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.
Be Blessed!

thing is, you study in CONTEXT. in other words, pay attention to the verses before and after and often enough the chapters.
Precious friend, Flomason:
(1) Not too sure about "obeying EVERYTHING" In The Bible. This may be a
s-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-d statement, Even for babes In CHRIST, who are Diligent in
their reading/studying and are seeing supposed Contradictions and
Discrepancies about "what is/what is NOT" for our obedience.
(2) Having respect for the convictions of others just might be the
thing that helps lead a soul to CHRIST, or welcome a believer into
“the fellowship of the Mystery” (Ephesians 3 : 9 KJB!).
So, I do respect that you have done a "deeper study" and formed your own
personal conviction of the matter, "an ordinance for your obedience." I do
believe it would be contentious though to say the whole church should
do the same, in a such a minor "cultural" matter {or is it MAJOR?}.
For example, in my experience, the church , as a whole, makes a
MAJOR matter of water baptism, but, have you noticed how Severely
Divided they are? IF you wish to review/join in that {MAJOR?
"pick & choose"} Controversy, {ALL questions welcome!}, it is here:
MAIN Divider of denominations...
(3) So, concerning your "deeper study," just one question:
Does God, in minor matters, allow "culture" to factor
into how we live our lives as His children?
More interesting "deeper" study is here:
You can't judge a woman by her cover
Be Blessed!
