What does it mean 1Corinthians 11:2-16? (Part 5)
Unfortunately, the Israelites was very distant of the Creator and His commandments:
• Amos 8.10 -> “I will turn your feasts into mourning and all your songs into lamentation; I will bring sackcloth on every waist and baldness on every head; I will make it like the mourning for an only son and the end of it like a bitter day.”.
• Micah 1:16 -> “Make yourselves bald and cut off your hair, for the children of your delight; make yourselves as bald as the eagle, for they shall go from you into exile.”.
So, when a woman prays or prophesies without having her head took by everything that the Creator desires to do in the life of her husband, she is evincing that she doesn’t have any respect or consideration for her husband, as if:
• she had been obliged to marry her husband as a slave;
• she was a whore or idolater and, for this, under the punishment of the Creator;
• she was a false servant of the Creator regretting for a dead.
• 1Cor 11:6 -> “For if a wife will not cover her head, then she should cut her hair short. But since it is disgraceful for a wife to cut off her hair or shave her head, let her cover her head.”.
The woman needs to cover her husband in her heart:
• 1Pe 3:3,4 -> “Whose adorning let it not be the outward adorning of braiding the hair, and of wearing jewels of gold, or of putting on apparel; but let it be the hidden man of the heart, in the incorruptible apparel of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.”.
Unfortunately, the translation in English is deficient in this case. The best translation would be “the hidden man IN the heart”. The woman needs to receive everything that her husband has to offer to her and make of this a cover for herself.
That is to say, when everyone looks to her, they need to see her husband. Her interest needs to be the interest of the husband. After all, the Creator poured His grace on the husband, and his wife is heiress of this grace (1Peter 3:7).
If she didn’t wish to do this, it is better to cut her hair short. At least, in this case, people will see her as a stranger to the Creator and His Church, being together with her husband only for obligation (after all, a short hair was as it was shaved it recently). In other words, it is as Jesus said:
• Mat 12:33,34 -> “Either make the tree good, and its fruit good; or make the tree corrupt, and its fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by its fruit. Ye offspring of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.”.
Have a good day in Jesus. Tomorrow we will carry on.
