Oh, thank you! I have been convicted about this subject for several years and this last week i just surrendered it to the Lord. This Sunday will be my first service to cover my head. In this process of trying on new coverings this week, the Lord has revealed my own pride and vanity to me. You have given me confidence and answered so many questions I have had. Thanks again and God bless 🙏
If we follow those who subscribe to the doctrine of women wearing veils, then it can be argued that the most often cited verse is 1st Corinth. 11:5, which states: “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.” According to many of those who believe women ought to wear veils this verse supposedly implies that a woman’s uncovered head is a woman who does not wear a veil. Such a woman is either dishonoring God, their own physical head or her husband for failing to wear it which implies that they are in disobedience. Some have gone so far as to say it is a sin. Another assumption is that the woman being referred to already has long hair and since they conclude that the covering is a veil then it must be referring to an “additional” covering otherwise it would clash with verse 15 stating that God gave women long hair for a covering. Another conclusion is that women ought to be covered ONLY when praying and prophesying and for men to be uncovered, which would make it seem as though it were something that can be placed on or taken off like a veil. You’ve probably noticed by now it takes several assumptions to reach the conclusion that women ought to wear a foreign object on their heads, despite the lack of evidence. * Does the Bible really give a clear command that women should wear a veil? The first thing that everyone must understand when talking about this topic is that it DOES NOT say the word “veil” or “cloth” or any other physical headwear, as far as the KJV is concerned. It surely mentions that the woman’s head should be covered, and no one disputes this, but it does not say that it should be covered with a veil, a shawl, a bonnet, a cap, or any other specific headwear. The verses in question within 1st Corinthians 11 mention the words, cover, covered, uncovered, and covering, but that does not mean we can translate this to mean specifically a veil, a shawl, a bonnet, a cap, or anything else similar. In fact, it would seem more like an adverb rather than a noun. Nevertheless, the word “cover” is unfortunately interpreted by head covering promoters to mean a veil above all other types of headwear, even if there is no evidence to prove that beyond a shadow of a doubt. To do so would mean that one is trying to read more into the verse than what is stated and is not truly seeking an exegesis of the Scriptures. Some have claimed that they are referring to a physical synthetic head covering because the Scriptures seem to indicate that there are two exclusive conditions to wear one and that is when a woman is either praying and/or prophesying. But does this interpretation stand up to logic? If we were to believe that under certain conditions a woman ought to wear a physical head covering, then it stands to reason that under OTHER conditions a woman should be able NOT to wear one. For example, if you are going to argue that a woman ought to wear a veil because the Bible claims there are two conditions, then it is logical to presume that any other condition would ALLOW them to be without one, like speaking in tongues, interpreting tongues, healing the sick, casting out devils, etc. Now if a head covering promoter should claim that there are MORE conditions, then they admit that there aren’t really “two” conditions thereby nullifying the two-condition argument. The reasoning behind why the “two-condition” argument is important for veil promoters is because if these words were actual conditions, then it would seem as though the covering were something that can be placed on or taken off. So even though it does not literally or EXPLICITLY say anything about putting on or taking off a veil. Veil promotors form this belief based on what they believe to be IMPLIED and not by a direct statement. Many people like to believe this because they ASSUME that praying and prophesying are two conditions instead of seeing them as mere examples. * Praying and prophesying were meant to be viewed as examples, not conditions… Now I can understand how someone can mistakenly conclude praying and prophesying as conditions in verse 5, on the surface, but once you read the rest of the verses in context one cannot reach that conclusion. If they were meant to be conditions then why would Paul say in verse 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.” If the reason for men not to cover their heads in this verse is because he is the “image and glory of God,” then why assume Paul was saying that there were only TWO conditions in verse 4? Wouldn’t 7 override any supposed conditions? Shouldn’t that make you question that perhaps Paul was just giving a couple of examples? But let’s continue. Verses 8 and 9 give us another understanding that Paul must have been referring to praying and prophesying as examples because he adds the order of creation into the mix. “For the man is not of the woman: but the woman of the man. Neither was the man CREATED for the woman; but the woman for the man.” If Paul states that the creation order has something to do with the reason as to why women ought to cover (in long hair) and men to be uncovered (aka have short hair) then we can conclude that this doctrine must be bound in NATURE. That is to say that it must have taken place since the creation of Adam and Eve and BEFORE the manufacturing of veils or hats, and BEFORE the creation of churches, which is another reason why hair easily fits the mold. This is confirmed when reading verses 13 and 14 when Paul asks you to make an observational judgment that if it is comely (aka pleasant looking) for a woman to pray uncovered (in short hair) and that even NATURE teaches us that a man with long hair is shameful. Why would Paul ask you to think that something as unnatural as a woman without a hat would look off and then say something as natural as long hair would look off on a man? Paul was saying that not being covered in long hair especially while praying looks uncomely and in the same breath he continues and says men with long hair also looks naturally wrong. * So Is the Covering Long Hair or a Veil? ….. If we examine all the verses from verses 4 to 15 without bias, we should at least agree that at certain points the verses are referring to physical heads and hair. Now some have tried to argue that the covering is somehow Jesus or men (some erroneously add husband here as well). But since the passage in 1st Corinthians 11 already states that the man or Jesus are already referred to as the heads one should not mix things up and add that they are the covering especially when this word is referring to something else entirely, Plus it wouldn’t make sense if we were to replace the word covering, covered or uncovered with Jesus, man or husband. So, do the words “covered,” “cover,” “uncovered” and “covering” refer to long and/or short hair or some kind of foreign head covering? Some will even say all the above, but if we carefully examine verse 15 we would be getting a clearer picture of what was being referred to in the earlier verses when it mentions these words. “But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her FOR a covering." KJV So if the covering is long hair, then the words “covered” or “cover” (which are synonymous with “covering”) should be understood as long hair as well. If that’s true, then to be “uncovered” would mean “short hair.” If so, then we can get a better picture of verse 4 when it says that it is shameful or dishonorable for a man to pray or prophesy with his head “covered.” Note the similarity of verse 4 to verse 14 that’s because they are both referring to being covered in LONG hair.
Thank you! I try to cover my head whenever I pray and go to Church. My family, even tho we are religious believes it is a bit extreme since I'm young. But the actual reason I'm doing it is because I feel closer to the Lord, and more respecting. God bless you❤️
Chelsea! Thank you for taking the time to share with us! I've been secretly hoping you'd upload a head covering tutorial :) And, thank you for sharing the bit at the end about creativity and expression, in The LORD, this time. I've been observing the same in my walk... rediscovering bits of me that were always true but had been corrupted... and God is so good to reintroduce these qualities in us but now for His glory, as you said. Amen! And, you look so beautiful with your coverings... gosh, God always knows what He's doing... :) Bless you and James!
Happy to see you and very happy you're doing well, Chelsea! Your eternity scarf with the little tassels is lovely. You really brighten my day and I thank God for you.
The veil is a visual sermon, a visual statement, a public proclamation before the Lord that He IS the Lord and that we love Him and that we are ready to obey Him.
I'm exactly where you are, convicted to cover my head, but I'm the only one in church who does, and so worry about the religious / judgmental aspect. I had a couple of people ask me why I cover my head in church and so I told them. It's still awkward being the only one, but I shall persevere. I'm also being convicted to wear something in the day at work but it's finding Something that doesn't scream Mormon or whatever religious spirit... really appreciate you sharing. I've been to your church a couple of times and met you, came with sister Paula. I'm off to Oxford at the weekend too for ladies event so may even see you, so in the meantime I will have fun experimenting. I'll probably go visit a charity shop soon! Thanks so much. God bless 💜🙏🏻💫
(I didn't watch this video but am familiar with this subject.) ...because the hair instead of a covering hath been given to her... In your own selves judge ye; is it seemly for a woman uncovered to pray to God? doth not even nature itself teach you, that if a man indeed have long hair, a dishonour it is to him? and a woman, if she have long hair, a glory it is to her, because the hair instead of a covering hath been given to her;... -Young's Literal Translation (YLT) Does even nature itself not teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a dishonor to him, but if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her? For her hair is given to her as a covering. -NASB A woman's long hair is the 'covering'. My thoughts: post length 4 minutes, some scriptures outside of Corinthians. Essay by another: post length 12 minutes, scriptures only within Corinthians Reply for post(s) if desired. They includes scriptures and commentary.
They have many lovely and affordable headscarves on Amazon. I like to use the magnetic holders that sisters use for hijab. Especially the cute heart shaped ones.
Your joy and radiance is such an inspiration to me!❤️ And I love the idea of all your pretty headcovering styles! I have spoken to my husband in the past about wearing one, but because of our very legalistic background he really hesitates at the idea. And I know honouring my husband is honouring God. I really appreciate that you are not legalistic about it, which I have encountered too much in my life.
Great video super helpful. I also find how the Jewish ladies tie their Tichels really inspiring. I'm not Jewish myself I just like their head coverings.
I have been so blessed to come across your videos about hair coverings because I've been doing these things for some time now- just when I pray but when I have and around other people, Ive only felt comfortable wearing hoodies! 🤦😄 so you have really helped me and encouraged me with all the dofferent styles available and they are very pretty and practical to wear all the time.. as a result feel more confident to wear them all the time too so a BIG thank you sister! 😍👍🙏 You look very pretty in them aswell xx
Thanks, I try to remember to cover my head when I pray at least. Tons of the British charity shops have usually got a good scarf wrack. The smaller, more local charities are best for finding a unique vintage scarf for pennies, but you may have to dig around in the 'bins'. I used to buy and sell vintage clothes and the best finds were always in this type of place.
That’s a great idea! I have been looking online and they can be expensive. I really like Salvation Army, etc, and didn’t even think of going there for coverings. Thank you & God Bless!
Silk, chiffon, satin are notoriously hard to keep in place! Pins, magnets, and a velvet headband help, but what if you dont have long hair? Got an idea for you. 3/4 in elastic tape, with grippy silicone on one side. Available on Amazon in 3ft strips in colors. Size to your head, swim cap tight, and zigzag stitch. Place it over your underscarf, and tuck about 2 or 3 inches chiffon underneath, working your way down either side of your head to behind the ears. Tie in back, as usual. I use elastic pony tail hair ties, those slippery fabrics just wont stay tied. Lasts all day!
Just wanted to come onto the most recent video and just thank you for preaching the true gospel. I've been led to learn of the false doctrines/teachers and leaders. I'm so grateful to have found you because of the goodness of God you spoke about that led me to repentance and my conversion. There's so much false converted teachers even calling themselves apostles. Thankyou for the pure truth 💓
I love head coverings!!! You look beautiful in them. I wish Christian women would not have given them up in the 50s and 60s. I remember wearing bonnets to church in the 70s. Check out garlandsofgrace for even more beautiful inspirations. God called me to wear headcoverings about 5 years ago. I wear very simple headbands, but cover more fully during prayer times. My husband is not a believer, so I feel hesitant to embrace it too much. But I completely embrace modest clothing, natural (organic or homemade) makeup, simple jewelry, and headcoverings:) God bless you!!!
Hey Chelsea. I havnt had much chance to watch many of your videos recently. I came out of new age around 2019 and your videos were such a blessing to me. Grounding is also beneficial I find. 👣📲☎️🙏 God bless you both. 🙏
You can buy those non-slip headbands off the internet in the uk, just search for non-slip wig bands. They are great, just make sure you wear them the right way around (in one direction the velvet feels smooth and in the other it has grip). I first didn’t know and thought they were rubbish 😉
Hi Chelsea , nice to see that you are having fun with all your head covering styles - I seem to remember giving you a Blue scarf from Israel a few years ago 😃 . God Bless You and James & Teddy .
I’m always trying to find some new ideas. Thanks! I wore a fancy wrap out one time and people thought I was ill! 😬😂 so I usually show some hair. The sheer gray triangle scarf with the fringe was really beautiful!
Nice video. I've been covering full time for almost 5 years and no one at church has ever mentioned it to me. so if it is a worry for some I say just go for it. Sometimes I don't like having so much wrapped on my head but I like full coverage and my snoods slip right off so I bought some turbans and instant scarves that are like half sewn turbans that I can still tie and wrap myself but with less fabric. I tried an under cap because most things slip off and so does the undercap, so my next try will be the velvet headbands. My favorite new instant scarf turban is red. I got it to match shoe strings on my hoodie sweater for a pop of color and realized it's pretty much my perfect turban color. (Maybe because I'm naturally redhead) it's my new favorite thing to wear with my brown and gray clothes now is this bright red turban. Do not be discouraged at first ladies or even a few years in I still try new styles and new fabrics and I get better at it over time, play with it just like you would your hair and try new things. I wear lots of turbans bit have been feeling slightly convicted to have some fabric hanging down if not tails then a veil and I've been praying about that and playing around a bit. It doesn't work all the time because it's in the way but I do think there is occasion where hanging fabric is called for... from my understanding the terms in scripture for cover refer to fabric hanging, which makes sense with the differences between men and women. So I still pray about how my covering can be pleasing to the Lord even after years. But my all time favorite go to easy styles are beanies, brimmed hats, turbans, and scarf with tails.
Yes when praying/prophesying women are to cover. I have been instructed to do so. And I admit I need to do better about it. I am in constant conversation with the Lord and don’t always have a wrap handy. I was wondering what people think of a question I have. When you are just talking to God thru the day, do you need to cover? Thank you & God Bless!
I am very new to my headcovering journey and still in the nervous part of it (what will people think? Will they mock me or say anything, like I'm being legalistic? Etc.). I know I should care more about what God thinks of me, but it's sometimes hard to come out of that mindset. I was convicted about covering last week when I came across a video on the teaching, and I just feel it's something God wants me to do. But I'm still studying the topic and like I say very new to it. I've been using one of those 'snood' type scarves for the last few days, starting this past Sunday when we went to church. I'm enjoying it so far, and my husband likes it. Our oldest son told me the look "suits" me and I should keep it. 😊 . When I was growing up (in a Roman catholic church, but I'm no longer catholic but born again believer attending a Baptist church), there was an older Mexican lady who always wore a mantilla during mass. I didn't know why until I asked my mom and she told me back in the day all the women and girls wore them during mass, so she still practiced it. To be honest, I always thought it was beautiful and I was a bit jealous of her beautiful lacey mantillas. (I know, I'm not supposed to covet, but I was a child at the time lol). . Where I live now, we have a large community of Mennonites in the area. I see them all the time at the local craft stores getting fabric, and I've always loved the look of their little coverings they wear. I want to try them, but don't want to be accused of like appropriating their culture or something (you know how people are these days. Always upset about something! 🙄). . Anywho, enjoyed your video! Gave me some new ideas for sure!
Hey! So I know I’m late, but I wanted to encourage you! I started covering my head probably close to a year ago, after being convicted of reading 1 Corinthians 11. Nobody in my family covers, or in my church. So I was hesitant. I have gotten unkind words and judgement , but the blessings far out way it. God has shown me this is what he wants me to do, no matter what anyone else tries to tell me. Whenever I start to get discouraged, I think of just me worshiping Jesus and try to let the distractions fade. I believe Jesus sees our coverings as beautiful ! I think even if nobody else does- not that they are wrong- but I am blessed to be able to share such a sacred thing with my Lord ❤️
What will people think? Hah! Who cares? Bad hair days forced my hand. It looked so terrible, a scarf was a huge improvement! I'm 67, and ive been under a scarf 4 years now. The history of women veiling transcends the Abrahamic religions. Back in the time of Jesus, women commonly wore a veil full time. It separated them from the help. A woman covered had status as a citizen. Wear it like a queen, wrap up Israeli style, or go to the muslim side and learn hijab! My head, neck and ears get cold, so I wear a long veiled Israeli tichel, to protect myself. What will people think? Well, my dentist and his staff had a good laugh about their terrorist patient! And then they got over it. Yep, really wasn't that exciting.
Headcovering styles should not become a thing for adornment as that would miss the point altogether. "Do not let your adorning be external-the braiding of hair and the putting on of gold jewelry, or the clothing you wear". I Peter 3: 3. Head covering for women when praying or prophesying is to cover the full long hair according to 1 Cor. 11: 5-6. The point he's making is to cover the whole head including the glory of hair when praying or prophesying to submit to the heavenly order and because of the angels. No style nor trend should be entertained.
I forgot to ask what do you do in winter if you are wearing a hat then go indoors? Say if you are visiting someone or attending church. Do you wear another covering under your hat?. I ask because it seems awkward to be in a situation wherein you would need to remove a hat but then need a covering.
Hello sister. Love your style. The Bible says a woman’s hair is her covering. God bless. But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering. 1 Corinthians 11:15
I used to feel this way but I'd recommend watching Mike Glover's deep dive into this, it's almost 7 hours but so worth it! In short my understanding is that there are two separate "rules" at play. 1. For a woman to not cut her hair, and 2. To wear a covering while praying and prophesying (v.5). A thought, if the covering were just long hair, why would Paul classify it for during praying/prophesying?
@@mongobongo91 (originally posted by 'FA') * Where the problem usually begins… (I) If we follow those who subscribe to the doctrine of women wearing veils then it can be argued that the most often cited verse in this teaching is 1st Corinth. 11:5, which states: “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.” According to those who believe women ought to wear veils this verse implies that a woman’s uncovered head is someone who does not wear a veil, is wrong for failing to wear it and assumes that such a person already has long hair. Therefore, the conclusion is that it must be referring to an “additional” covering. Another conclusion is that if a woman ought to be covered only when praying and prophesying then it would seem as though it is something that can be taken on or off like a veil. A typical question from those who are against hair being “the covering” is usually something like this: “If a woman ONLY needs to cover during prophecy or prayer, then how can a woman take off her hair and then put it back on?” The logical response to this is: Where did you read the word: "Only?" Such a person assumes the Bible refers to an “exclusive condition” instead of viewing it as simply two examples being given. IF YOU TRULY BELIEVE IN THIS “EXCLUSIVITY INTERPRETATION” then an UNVEILED woman should be fine if they speak in tongues, interpret tongues, heal the sick, cast out devils, etc., right? As long as the woman is NOT praying or prophesying, then she need not wear a veil, right? If your answer is NO, then you admit that there are likely more instances where it would not look right and do not truly believe that ONLY under praying or prophesying does a woman need to be covered; thereby making the argument that the covering is removable based on two conditions, moot. So what can we say about this? Just that Paul is giving us a couple of examples of how doing something holy does not look right if she is uncovered, in other words not covered in hair. The question is: Is he really referring to the lack of a veil or the lack of hair meaning not having long hair? Also, please keep in mind that the word “veil” is not actually mentioned here, neither anything that IMPLICITLY states that the covering is something can be placed on or taken off. Here’s something to consider: imagine a woman with long flowing hair praying and prophesying without a veil. Would the lack of a veil really equate to someone as if they were shaven? Why would anyone come to this conclusion? It would seem a bit odd that a woman with long hair who is not wearing a veil should somehow be equated to being shaved. This is most certainly an odd thought pattern if we accept the veil interpretation. But it does fit the narrative of those who understand the word “uncovered” to mean “not covered in long hair” or simply put, “short hair.” Looking at a woman with short hair one can easily say that she might as well be shaved. So be honest, doesn’t it make more sense that when they refer to an uncovered woman they are referring to a woman with short hair? Wouldn’t that be MORE closely relatable to being shaven than to someone who has long hair but not wearing a veil being equated to someone shaved? To put it in another way it is not a big leap to make the correlation between short hair to being shaven, unlike being asked to make a GIGANTIC LEAP OF LOGIC that an unveiled woman (even with long flowing hair) is somehow equal to being shaved. Think about it. * Is the Covering Long Hair or a Veil? ….. (II) If we examine all the verses from verse 4 to 15 without bias we should at least conclude that the passages have something to do with the physical heads of both men and women. The question we should ask is: When they refer to “covered,” “cover,” “uncovered” and “covering” are they referring to hair that covers the head or some kind of veil? Some will even say both, but if we carefully examine verse 15 it would seem that we would be getting a clearer picture of what was being referred to in the earlier verses when it mentions the words, “covered,” “cover” and “uncovered." “But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her FOR a covering." If the covering is long hair then the words “covered” or “cover” which are synonymous to “covering,” should be understood as long hair as well. Then it makes sense when it says that it is shameful or dishonorable for a man to pray or prophesy with his head “covered” because they are referring to long hair. Now logically speaking wouldn’t being “uncovered” or “not covered” then mean short hair? Therefore, if to be covered refers to “long hair” then the opposite should be true, in that to be “uncovered” should be understood as having “short” hair. This is not complicated at all to understand it is basic logic. * You Should Naturally Know Right From Wrong by Just Looking…. (III) If these verses do not move you yet then here’s one that should definitely blow your mind. Paul asks you to make a judgment call in verse 13 as if one should naturally see a problem because he asks you to: "Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered?" If “covering” really meant a veil then one would have to explain why anyone would possibly come up with a judgment that a woman praying or prophesying WITHOUT A FABRIC VEIL ON THEIR HEAD WOULD LOGICALLY OR NATURALLY LOOK WRONG? Someone needs to explain this logically. Be honest, does looking at someone doing this naturally create a thought that a veil is missing? I have never seen or heard anyone say: "What a shame she is not wearing a veil on her head” after looking at a woman with long hair while praying or prophesying, that would be ludicrous. There is no NATURAL or NORMAL reasoning to make such a judgment. But if the word “uncovered” were to mean "short hair." then it would make logical sense. Because if I see a woman who has a manly haircut doing these holy things like we read in verse 5, then I can naturally judge that something doesn’t look right. Also, the very next verse continues this line of thinking that things should be obvious to understand by mere observation in nature. "Doth not even NATURE itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him." 1st Corinthians 11:14 Note that verses 13 and 14 are two consecutive questions both of which asks you to NATURALLY ASSUME that there something wrong by SEEING a woman’s head to be uncovered (meaning having short hair) and a man having long hair (meaning being covered). I would like to also add that it is NOT jumping from a “veil” in 13 and then suddenly to “hair” in 14 like some would like to suggest, because you will note that verse 15 refers back again to the woman which FLAT OUT STATES the “covering” to mean “long hair.” Therefore there is NO EXCUSE to not understand the previous verses. By this simple understanding we can then understand the part where it states that it is shameful or dishonoring for a man to pray or prophesy with his head covered, meaning covered in long hair, like in verses 4:
“Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonoureth his head.” This “dishonoring” of the head fits perfectly with verse 14 where it mentions that it is “shameful“ for a man to have long hair, therefore the topic is the same throughout the verses in that the head covered in this verse refers to “long hair. ” I should also add that these verses in NO WAY imply that the covering on the man can be placed on or taken off, like some like to argue. It’s SIMPLY SAYING that it is a dishonor if a man prays or prophesies in LONG HAIR. The same should be understood in verse 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.” Again, they are NOT implying something that can be put on or taken off but that the man should not cover his head (with long hair) and the reason because he is the image and glory of God. This same idea should be included in the verses that refer to women like in verse 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.” This verse is often misinterpreted like verse 5 when it’s simply mentioning in the same tone as the previous verse that if a woman has short hair then let her head be shaved BUT if it is a shame to be shaven let her be covered in long hair. It’s really not complicated once you understand what it means to be covered or uncovered. Everything else starts to make sense when you read the other verses knowing that they are referring to hair. I can only imagine how lost one must be when they are stuck on one or two verses that to them seems questionable but not take into consideration all the other verses that point to the “covering” as long hair and “uncovered” to mean short hair. Therefore, given all this logic and proof, how can one conclude that they are referring to a hat, bonnet or veil? Again, how can one have logical judgments or conclusions that by merely looking at a long-haired woman performing such holy acts without a veil that one would automatically assume that there is something off? It makes no logical sense. So before anyone gets riled up why not first try to EXPLAIN 1st Corinthians 11:13 because I suspect most people will simply ignore it. In short, therefore, the whole veil doctrine is wrong, it cannot be substantiated and should be rejected.
@878 4436 I do think we agree on several points and I appreciate your nuanced, clearly thoughtful view. Firstly, I do not claim that a covering/veil is a primary issue, it is certainly not something I'm hung up on or attempting to use as a crutch. I believe the walk and relationship comes first, and outward expressions will follow. Secondly, if I read you right we are in agreement that women ought not cut their hair (it is their covering, and their glory). However, I think where we disagree is for specifically praying and prophesying (v. 5 and 13). I'm reading in the word "only" because v. 4 and 5 are specifically talking about praying and prophesying. Assumedly, men can wear hats when they aren't praying, correct? But they're to remove the covering when praying as given in v. 4. The reverse is applied to women. Furthermore, men are not shave their heads every time they pray? It clearly refers to a separate covering being removed. Why not apply the same logic to the women's covering? Finally, and forgive my inability to quote specifics, again I would direct you to Mike Wingers break down of this...the specific word "covering" elsewhere, more often than otherwise refers to a cloth covering of some kind (The example im recalling is I believe malchizidec, butchered spelling lol, covering his head leaving the temple on his way home). Certainly if a woman wants to wear a head covering outside of those specific times I see no issue with that. I take the meaning to be a symbol of the man's headship in the relationship, and submission to authority (tell me how oppressed I am 😘). But my reading of this passage, in full context, is that it is required in this specific setting. Regarding v. 13, it seems as though you're adding our modern cultural viewpoint on headcoverings, in your asking whether seeing a women praying without a headcovering would be out if place. Keep in mind at the time of Paul's writing it *would* have been out of place, and that's the audience he's speaking to specifically. Ultimately I think God meets us where we're at. If I see a woman with cut hair, or not wearing a covering I am not condemning her because I don't know where she's at with her walk. I know for myself it's something that the Lord has been putting on my heart. And I think if I were to rebel against that then I could be in muddy water (more from the spirit of rebellion than anything). I've been very diligent in reading the Word on this as well as multiple interpretations/arguments. In fact the church I attend and that my husband was raised in takes the long hair = covering view, but in my reading I'm feeling led otherwise. To each their own. I do find it interesting there is no where near the same level of contention over whether men should take off their coverings (hats) during prayer. Why do you think this is? Personally I think it's a negative association with head coverings in our modern culture. Which to me is all the more reason to cover my head! Modern culture can suck eggs! Anyway, I appreciate the dialog and your scholarly take on this subject. I trust you're following as close in all matters of salvation 😊
If we follow those who subscribe to the doctrine of women wearing veils, then it can be argued that the most often cited verse is 1st Corinth. 11:5, which states: “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.” According to many of those who believe women ought to wear veils this verse supposedly implies that a woman’s uncovered head is a woman who does not wear a veil. Such a woman is either dishonoring God, their own physical head or her husband for failing to wear it which implies that they are in disobedience. Some have gone so far as to say it is a sin. Another assumption is that the woman being referred to already has long hair and since they conclude that the covering is a veil then it must be referring to an “additional” covering otherwise it would clash with verse 15 stating that God gave women long hair for a covering. Another conclusion is that women ought to be covered ONLY when praying and prophesying and for men to be uncovered, which would make it seem as though it were something that can be placed on or taken off like a veil. You’ve probably noticed by now it takes several assumptions to reach the conclusion that women ought to wear a foreign object on their heads, despite the lack of evidence. * Does the Bible really give a clear command that women should wear a veil? The first thing that everyone must understand when talking about this topic is that it DOES NOT say the word “veil” or “cloth” or any other physical headwear, as far as the KJV is concerned. It surely mentions that the woman’s head should be covered, and no one disputes this, but it does not say that it should be covered with a veil, a shawl, a bonnet, a cap, or any other specific headwear. The verses in question within 1st Corinthians 11 mention the words, cover, covered, uncovered, and covering, but that does not mean we can translate this to mean specifically a veil, a shawl, a bonnet, a cap, or anything else similar. In fact, it would seem more like an adverb rather than a noun. Nevertheless, the word “cover” is unfortunately interpreted by head covering promoters to mean a veil above all other types of headwear, even if there is no evidence to prove that beyond a shadow of a doubt. To do so would mean that one is trying to read more into the verse than what is stated and is not truly seeking an exegesis of the Scriptures. Some have claimed that they are referring to a physical synthetic head covering because the Scriptures seem to indicate that there are two exclusive conditions to wear one and that is when a woman is either praying and/or prophesying. But does this interpretation stand up to logic? If we were to believe that under certain conditions a woman ought to wear a physical head covering, then it stands to reason that under OTHER conditions a woman should be able NOT to wear one. For example, if you are going to argue that a woman ought to wear a veil because the Bible claims there are two conditions, then it is logical to presume that any other condition would ALLOW them to be without one, like speaking in tongues, interpreting tongues, healing the sick, casting out devils, etc. Now if a head covering promoter should claim that there are MORE conditions, then they admit that there aren’t really “two” conditions thereby nullifying the two-condition argument. The reasoning behind why the “two-condition” argument is important for veil promoters is because if these words were actual conditions, then it would seem as though the covering were something that can be placed on or taken off. So even though it does not literally or EXPLICITLY say anything about putting on or taking off a veil. Veil promotors form this belief based on what they believe to be IMPLIED and not by a direct statement. Many people like to believe this because they ASSUME that praying and prophesying are two conditions instead of seeing them as mere examples. * Praying and prophesying were meant to be viewed as examples, not conditions… Now I can understand how someone can mistakenly conclude praying and prophesying as conditions in verse 5, on the surface, but once you read the rest of the verses in context one cannot reach that conclusion. If they were meant to be conditions then why would Paul say in verse 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.” If the reason for men not to cover their heads in this verse is because he is the “image and glory of God,” then why assume Paul was saying that there were only TWO conditions in verse 4? Wouldn’t 7 override any supposed conditions? Shouldn’t that make you question that perhaps Paul was just giving a couple of examples? But let’s continue. Verses 8 and 9 give us another understanding that Paul must have been referring to praying and prophesying as examples because he adds the order of creation into the mix. “For the man is not of the woman: but the woman of the man. Neither was the man CREATED for the woman; but the woman for the man.” If Paul states that the creation order has something to do with the reason as to why women ought to cover (in long hair) and men to be uncovered (aka have short hair) then we can conclude that this doctrine must be bound in NATURE. That is to say that it must have taken place since the creation of Adam and Eve and BEFORE the manufacturing of veils or hats, and BEFORE the creation of churches, which is another reason why hair easily fits the mold. This is confirmed when reading verses 13 and 14 when Paul asks you to make an observational judgment that if it is comely (aka pleasant looking) for a woman to pray uncovered (in short hair) and that even NATURE teaches us that a man with long hair is shameful. Why would Paul ask you to think that something as unnatural as a woman without a hat would look off and then say something as natural as long hair would look off on a man? Paul was saying that not being covered in long hair especially while praying looks uncomely and in the same breath he continues and says men with long hair also looks naturally wrong. * So Is the Covering Long Hair or a Veil? ….. If we examine all the verses from verses 4 to 15 without bias, we should at least agree that at certain points the verses are referring to physical heads and hair. Now some have tried to argue that the covering is somehow Jesus or men (some erroneously add husband here as well). But since the passage in 1st Corinthians 11 already states that the man or Jesus are already referred to as the heads one should not mix things up and add that they are the covering especially when this word is referring to something else entirely, Plus it wouldn’t make sense if we were to replace the word covering, covered or uncovered with Jesus, man or husband. So, do the words “covered,” “cover,” “uncovered” and “covering” refer to long and/or short hair or some kind of foreign head covering? Some will even say all the above, but if we carefully examine verse 15 we would be getting a clearer picture of what was being referred to in the earlier verses when it mentions these words. “But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her FOR a covering." KJV So if the covering is long hair, then the words “covered” or “cover” (which are synonymous with “covering”) should be understood as long hair as well. If that’s true, then to be “uncovered” would mean “short hair.” If so, then we can get a better picture of verse 4 when it says that it is shameful or dishonorable for a man to pray or prophesy with his head “covered.” Note the similarity of verse 4 to verse 14 that’s because they are both referring to being covered in LONG hair.
Ive never covered full time. I do cover when praying tho and sometimes when bible reading. I have some stretchy tube things that are easy to just throw on in a second. I like the way the jewish girls wear some of their tichels but i find they do slip.
“If anyone says, “I love God,” and hates (works against) his [Christian] brother he is a liar; for the one who does not love his brother whom he has seen, cannot love God whom he has not seen.” 1 John 4:20 AMP
Jesus designed some fun hats for me to wear. One with colorful flowers, one with a basket of summer fruit, with animals. Some more flower hats with white flowers. Red onws they are so nice and fun. The basket of fruit is a joke about my ten days of persecution in a mental hospital for believing Jesus is coming back. He did come to the hospital and turned it into a church. When you see the basket case and the summer fruitcake you know the end is near. The animals are about Him making me a weirdo pet prophet singing new name seal songs to call the animals
1. Christ said the Kingdom of God is within each of us. The father, the son and the holy spirit is inside each us and he told us to seek it. 2. We do not know what good and evil is. Thats why when Eve ate the fruit of “good and evil” she became trapped in her mind thinking she is God to judge others based on her “good and evil” inside her mind. 3. The Order of God was “God over man, man over woman, woman over children”. The order was backwards when Eve believed the Serpent and Adam believed Eve. So it became “Satan over Eve, Eve over Adam” - This is the sin cycle. Its repeated in the world where Satan continues to use effeminacy to turn kids into his image so they don’t know God’s identity, our father’s identity in Christ. 4. When we do wrongs, its not a sin. Its wrong but its the sin nature in us that causes us to do the wrongs. 5. Again, as human beings we cannot hate anybody, we have to love all people but the world is trying to make kids go against their earthly fathers. If kids dont love their earthly fathers they dont love God, that goes for anybody else they hate too. 6. People who call themselves Christians and go to church and read the Bible, it doesnt mean theyre Christians. There are many that do this but just doing this doesnt mean they know God, Christ said the Kingdom of God is within, its not on the outside. The Kingdom of God is not in the church nor in the Bible, its in us. The Bible only points us back to God in his kingdom within us but many Christians worship churches, church leaders, religions, the Bible, wordly leaders etc. over God. God is inside each of us, his Kingdom is in us. He wants us to seek him within. Thats how I find out what I learned was wrong in the beginning of my baby Christian steps. Love you, I watched you from the beginning and I am so happy for you 😊
Corinthians 11 15 but if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For her hair is given to her for a covering. 16 If anyone is inclined to be contentious, we have no such practice, nor do the churches of God.
Yes I’ve been wearing the head covering full time for a while probably almost 2 years now but sometimes I don’t wear it all day. As for makeup I still wear it yes but not every day. I like to wear makeup still but just make sure I’m not reliant on it and check my heart it’s not an idol 🙏🏻 God bless you too!
@@Jesusistruth3 thanks for the reply Chelsea, the head coverings are lovely on you, I think I’ll start to do this, you look very pretty in them….. I just wondered about you’re make up…as I used to wear it all the time but since I’ve been saved, I just don’t have that will to make up anymore, not every day anyway, and occasionally, if I do, it’s the bare minimum and very lightly applied….. and you’re right about the ‘idol’ when it comes to vanity…….. you look beautiful without it Chelsea, you’re a naturally beautiful young lady x
cor 11;16 But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God. it was the tradition and custon and culture of those times. nothing else in 1 pet 3 we read about women coming to the church meetings with plaited hair so women did not cover the hair. thirdly, the Bible says that everything has to be gounded on at least TWO witnesses. there is only ONE place in the Bible where you read about the head covering and that is also not very clear since we read in the very passage that the hair of women is their covering. in the new testament we dont follow the traditions of old. we follow Lord Yeshu who set us free from the external things. now the reality is Christ Himself. not the things on the outside those who wear head coverings rely on the Flesh which is SIN and that is the WRONG REBELLION... thats bondage to sin...
Oh, thank you! I have been convicted about this subject for several years and this last week i just surrendered it to the Lord. This Sunday will be my first service to cover my head. In this process of trying on new coverings this week, the Lord has revealed my own pride and vanity to me. You have given me confidence and answered so many questions I have had. Thanks again and God bless 🙏
I plan to be joining you this Sunday as it will be my first covered service too!

Thank you! I try to cover my head whenever I pray and go to Church. My family, even tho we are religious believes it is a bit extreme since I'm young. But the actual reason I'm doing it is because I feel closer to the Lord, and more respecting. God bless you❤️
There’s no such thing as extreme when you’re serving the Lord just as he said.
Chelsea! Thank you for taking the time to share with us! I've been secretly hoping you'd upload a head covering tutorial :) And, thank you for sharing the bit at the end about creativity and expression, in The LORD, this time. I've been observing the same in my walk... rediscovering bits of me that were always true but had been corrupted... and God is so good to reintroduce these qualities in us but now for His glory, as you said. Amen! And, you look so beautiful with your coverings... gosh, God always knows what He's doing... :) Bless you and James!
Happy to see you and very happy you're doing well, Chelsea! Your eternity scarf with the little tassels is lovely. You really brighten my day and I thank God for you.
The veil is a visual sermon, a visual statement, a public proclamation before the Lord that He IS the Lord and that we love Him and that we are ready to obey Him.
I'm exactly where you are, convicted to cover my head, but I'm the only one in church who does, and so worry about the religious / judgmental aspect. I had a couple of people ask me why I cover my head in church and so I told them. It's still awkward being the only one, but I shall persevere. I'm also being convicted to wear something in the day at work but it's finding Something that doesn't scream Mormon or whatever religious spirit... really appreciate you sharing. I've been to your church a couple of times and met you, came with sister Paula. I'm off to Oxford at the weekend too for ladies event so may even see you, so in the meantime I will have fun experimenting. I'll probably go visit a charity shop soon! Thanks so much. God bless 💜🙏🏻💫
(I didn't watch this video but am familiar with this subject.)
...because the hair instead of a covering hath been given to her...
In your own selves judge ye; is it seemly for a woman uncovered to pray to God? doth not even nature itself teach you, that if a man indeed have long hair, a dishonour it is to him? and a woman, if she have long hair, a glory it is to her, because the hair instead of a covering hath been given to her;...
-Young's Literal Translation (YLT)
Does even nature itself not teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a dishonor to him, but if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her? For her hair is given to her as a covering.
-NASB
A woman's long hair is the 'covering'.
My thoughts: post length 4 minutes, some scriptures outside of Corinthians.
Essay by another: post length 12 minutes, scriptures only within Corinthians
Reply for post(s) if desired. They includes scriptures and commentary.
They have many lovely and affordable headscarves on Amazon. I like to use the magnetic holders that sisters use for hijab. Especially the cute heart shaped ones.
Your joy and radiance is such an inspiration to me!❤️ And I love the idea of all your pretty headcovering styles! I have spoken to my husband in the past about wearing one, but because of our very legalistic background he really hesitates at the idea. And I know honouring my husband is honouring God.
I really appreciate that you are not legalistic about it, which I have encountered too much in my life.
Obey God and everything else will fall into place. 🙏🏻
Thank you so much for sharing all your ideas!
I'm new to Christian head covering and I'm so excited to try different things and find my own styles 😊❤🙏
Great video super helpful. I also find how the Jewish ladies tie their Tichels really inspiring. I'm not Jewish myself I just like their head coverings.
I have been so blessed to come across your videos about hair coverings because I've been doing these things for some time now- just when I pray but when I have and around other people, Ive only felt comfortable wearing hoodies! 🤦😄 so you have really helped me and encouraged me with all the dofferent styles available and they are very pretty and practical to wear all the time.. as a result feel more confident to wear them all the time too so a BIG thank you sister! 😍👍🙏 You look very pretty in them aswell xx
Sorry for my bad grammar.. was typing this quickly lol 😄💛
Thanks, I try to remember to cover my head when I pray at least. Tons of the British charity shops have usually got a good scarf wrack. The smaller, more local charities are best for finding a unique vintage scarf for pennies, but you may have to dig around in the 'bins'.
I used to buy and sell vintage clothes and the best finds were always in this type of place.
That’s a great idea! I have been looking online and they can be expensive. I really like Salvation Army, etc, and didn’t even think of going there for coverings. Thank you & God Bless!
@@keekat65 you'll soon end up with a drawer full. Happy bargain hunting. And God bless you too :)
Silk, chiffon, satin are notoriously hard to keep in place! Pins, magnets, and a velvet headband help, but what if you dont have long hair?
Got an idea for you.
3/4 in elastic tape, with grippy silicone on one side. Available on Amazon in 3ft strips in colors. Size to your head, swim cap tight, and zigzag stitch.
Place it over your underscarf, and tuck about 2 or 3 inches chiffon underneath, working your way down either side of your head to behind the ears. Tie in back, as usual. I use elastic pony tail hair ties, those slippery fabrics just wont stay tied. Lasts all day!
Feel like a business coming on! Head coverings for the Christian Ladies! Creativity on the head!😃
Just wanted to come onto the most recent video and just thank you for preaching the true gospel. I've been led to learn of the false doctrines/teachers and leaders. I'm so grateful to have found you because of the goodness of God you spoke about that led me to repentance and my conversion. There's so much false converted teachers even calling themselves apostles. Thankyou for the pure truth 💓
Oh wow hallelujah praise Jesus! I know it’s a very messy time and so many false voices around, keep in the word and test all things 🙏🏻
Pretty and practical 💕 think I will get my scarfs out again as I love wearing them. Must get some new ones too! God Bless. 🕊
I love head coverings!!! You look beautiful in them. I wish Christian women would not have given them up in the 50s and 60s. I remember wearing bonnets to church in the 70s. Check out garlandsofgrace for even more beautiful inspirations. God called me to wear headcoverings about 5 years ago. I wear very simple headbands, but cover more fully during prayer times. My husband is not a believer, so I feel hesitant to embrace it too much. But I completely embrace modest clothing, natural (organic or homemade) makeup, simple jewelry, and headcoverings:) God bless you!!!
Thank you!! I recently was convicted to cover my head. I appreciate your heart ❤
Very pretty and you taught me how to wrap my scarves! 🥰
Hey Chelsea. I havnt had much chance to watch many of your videos recently. I came out of new age around 2019 and your videos were such a blessing to me.
Grounding is also beneficial I find. 👣📲☎️🙏 God bless you both. 🙏
Thank you for the inspiration! I love your little doggy in the bankground!🐕
You look beautiful in all of them! I’m interested as well!! Thank you
i love these style head covers i have used them before you have inspired me again thankyou so much xx
You can buy those non-slip headbands off the internet in the uk, just search for non-slip wig bands. They are great, just make sure you wear them the right way around (in one direction the velvet feels smooth and in the other it has grip). I first didn’t know and thought they were rubbish 😉
Hi Chelsea , nice to see that you are having fun with all your head covering styles - I seem to remember giving you a Blue scarf from Israel a few years ago 😃 . God Bless You and James & Teddy .
I've worn head coverings on and off, I was never consistent about it. I did have feelings of "holier than throu" often, when I wore them.
I’m always trying to find some new ideas. Thanks! I wore a fancy wrap out one time and people thought I was ill! 😬😂 so I usually show some hair. The sheer gray triangle scarf with the fringe was really beautiful!
That large round scarf is an "Infinity Veil". Ladies wore that to Mass back in the day.
Nice video. I've been covering full time for almost 5 years and no one at church has ever mentioned it to me. so if it is a worry for some I say just go for it. Sometimes I don't like having so much wrapped on my head but I like full coverage and my snoods slip right off so I bought some turbans and instant scarves that are like half sewn turbans that I can still tie and wrap myself but with less fabric. I tried an under cap because most things slip off and so does the undercap, so my next try will be the velvet headbands. My favorite new instant scarf turban is red. I got it to match shoe strings on my hoodie sweater for a pop of color and realized it's pretty much my perfect turban color. (Maybe because I'm naturally redhead) it's my new favorite thing to wear with my brown and gray clothes now is this bright red turban. Do not be discouraged at first ladies or even a few years in I still try new styles and new fabrics and I get better at it over time, play with it just like you would your hair and try new things. I wear lots of turbans bit have been feeling slightly convicted to have some fabric hanging down if not tails then a veil and I've been praying about that and playing around a bit. It doesn't work all the time because it's in the way but I do think there is occasion where hanging fabric is called for... from my understanding the terms in scripture for cover refer to fabric hanging, which makes sense with the differences between men and women. So I still pray about how my covering can be pleasing to the Lord even after years. But my all time favorite go to easy styles are beanies, brimmed hats, turbans, and scarf with tails.
they look so nice on you i would like to start to cover my head as the word dose tell a woman to do just that cover it . Bless you sister
Thank you for this video on Christian head covering. You are absolutely delightful. God bless. 💞, Cowgirl Deb
Yes when praying/prophesying women are to cover. I have been instructed to do so.
And I admit I need to do better about it. I am in constant conversation with the Lord and don’t always have a wrap handy.
I was wondering what people think of a question I have. When you are just talking to God thru the day, do you need to cover? Thank you & God Bless!
I am very new to my headcovering journey and still in the nervous part of it (what will people think? Will they mock me or say anything, like I'm being legalistic? Etc.).
I know I should care more about what God thinks of me, but it's sometimes hard to come out of that mindset.
I was convicted about covering last week when I came across a video on the teaching, and I just feel it's something God wants me to do.
But I'm still studying the topic and like I say very new to it.
I've been using one of those 'snood' type scarves for the last few days, starting this past Sunday when we went to church.
I'm enjoying it so far, and my husband likes it. Our oldest son told me the look "suits" me and I should keep it. 😊
.
When I was growing up (in a Roman catholic church, but I'm no longer catholic but born again believer attending a Baptist church), there was an older Mexican lady who always wore a mantilla during mass. I didn't know why until I asked my mom and she told me back in the day all the women and girls wore them during mass, so she still practiced it.
To be honest, I always thought it was beautiful and I was a bit jealous of her beautiful lacey mantillas. (I know, I'm not supposed to covet, but I was a child at the time lol).
.
Where I live now, we have a large community of Mennonites in the area. I see them all the time at the local craft stores getting fabric, and I've always loved the look of their little coverings they wear.
I want to try them, but don't want to be accused of like appropriating their culture or something (you know how people are these days. Always upset about something! 🙄).
.
Anywho, enjoyed your video! Gave me some new ideas for sure!
Hey! So I know I’m late, but I wanted to encourage you! I started covering my head probably close to a year ago, after being convicted of reading 1 Corinthians 11. Nobody in my family covers, or in my church. So I was hesitant. I have gotten unkind words and judgement , but the blessings far out way it. God has shown me this is what he wants me to do, no matter what anyone else tries to tell me. Whenever I start to get discouraged, I think of just me worshiping Jesus and try to let the distractions fade. I believe Jesus sees our coverings as beautiful ! I think even if nobody else does- not that they are wrong- but I am blessed to be able to share such a sacred thing with my Lord ❤️
What will people think? Hah! Who cares? Bad hair days forced my hand. It looked so terrible, a scarf was a huge improvement! I'm 67, and ive been under a scarf 4 years now. The history of women veiling transcends the Abrahamic religions. Back in the time of Jesus, women commonly wore a veil full time. It separated them from the help. A woman covered had status as a citizen.
Wear it like a queen, wrap up Israeli style, or go to the muslim side and learn hijab! My head, neck and ears get cold, so I wear a long veiled Israeli tichel, to protect myself.
What will people think? Well, my dentist and his staff had a good laugh about their terrorist patient! And then they got over it. Yep, really wasn't that exciting.
Lovely and creative.
That was beautiful.
Headcovering styles should not become a thing for adornment as that would miss the point altogether. "Do not let your adorning be external-the braiding of hair and the putting on of gold jewelry, or the clothing you wear". I Peter 3: 3.
Head covering for women when praying or prophesying is to cover the full long hair according to 1 Cor. 11: 5-6. The point he's making is to cover the whole head including the glory of hair when praying or prophesying to submit to the heavenly order and because of the angels.
No style nor trend should be entertained.
I love your picture of Jesus in the background.🤍
I like these! nice coverings.
There’s Harmony Headwraps in the UK ❤
Amen!! God bless you sister!! :)))
Look at Teddy 😆🤣❤ so funny 🤣
Besides Wrapunzel where do you find the scarves?
THANK YOU GOD BLESS
Brilliant! Thank you 😊
I forgot to ask what do you do in winter if you are wearing a hat then go indoors? Say if you are visiting someone or attending church. Do you wear another covering under your hat?. I ask because it seems awkward to be in a situation wherein you would need to remove a hat but then need a covering.
Awesome, sweet and modest. God bless you and dont worry about anything
Veronica wiped the sweat from Jesus’ brow with her veil.
Hello sister. Love your style. The Bible says a woman’s hair is her covering. God bless. But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering. 1 Corinthians 11:15
@@Desiree_Rose Pure heretic. I’ll just read the Bible thanks!
@@Mountain_Woman The hair is the covering.
It is the only way all this can make sense.
I used to feel this way but I'd recommend watching Mike Glover's deep dive into this, it's almost 7 hours but so worth it! In short my understanding is that there are two separate "rules" at play. 1. For a woman to not cut her hair, and 2. To wear a covering while praying and prophesying (v.5).
A thought, if the covering were just long hair, why would Paul classify it for during praying/prophesying?

* Where the problem usually begins… (I)
If we follow those who subscribe to the doctrine of women wearing veils then it can be argued that the most often cited verse in this teaching is 1st Corinth. 11:5, which states:
“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.”
According to those who believe women ought to wear veils this verse implies that a woman’s uncovered head is someone who does not wear a veil, is wrong for failing to wear it and assumes that such a person already has long hair. Therefore, the conclusion is that it must be referring to an “additional” covering. Another conclusion is that if a woman ought to be covered only when praying and prophesying then it would seem as though it is something that can be taken on or off like a veil.
A typical question from those who are against hair being “the covering” is usually something like this: “If a woman ONLY needs to cover during prophecy or prayer, then how can a woman take off her hair and then put it back on?” The logical response to this is: Where did you read the word: "Only?" Such a person assumes the Bible refers to an “exclusive condition” instead of viewing it as simply two examples being given. IF YOU TRULY BELIEVE IN THIS “EXCLUSIVITY INTERPRETATION” then an UNVEILED woman should be fine if they speak in tongues, interpret tongues, heal the sick, cast out devils, etc., right? As long as the woman is NOT praying or prophesying, then she need not wear a veil, right? If your answer is NO, then you admit that there are likely more instances where it would not look right and do not truly believe that ONLY under praying or prophesying does a woman need to be covered; thereby making the argument that the covering is removable based on two conditions, moot.
So what can we say about this? Just that Paul is giving us a couple of examples of how doing something holy does not look right if she is uncovered, in other words not covered in hair. The question is: Is he really referring to the lack of a veil or the lack of hair meaning not having long hair? Also, please keep in mind that the word “veil” is not actually mentioned here, neither anything that IMPLICITLY states that the covering is something can be placed on or taken off.
Here’s something to consider: imagine a woman with long flowing hair praying and prophesying without a veil. Would the lack of a veil really equate to someone as if they were shaven? Why would anyone come to this conclusion? It would seem a bit odd that a woman with long hair who is not wearing a veil should somehow be equated to being shaved. This is most certainly an odd thought pattern if we accept the veil interpretation. But it does fit the narrative of those who understand the word “uncovered” to mean “not covered in long hair” or simply put, “short hair.” Looking at a woman with short hair one can easily say that she might as well be shaved. So be honest, doesn’t it make more sense that when they refer to an uncovered woman they are referring to a woman with short hair? Wouldn’t that be MORE closely relatable to being shaven than to someone who has long hair but not wearing a veil being equated to someone shaved? To put it in another way it is not a big leap to make the correlation between short hair to being shaven, unlike being asked to make a GIGANTIC LEAP OF LOGIC that an unveiled woman (even with long flowing hair) is somehow equal to being shaved. Think about it.
* Is the Covering Long Hair or a Veil? ….. (II)
If we examine all the verses from verse 4 to 15 without bias we should at least conclude that the passages have something to do with the physical heads of both men and women. The question we should ask is: When they refer to “covered,” “cover,” “uncovered” and “covering” are they referring to hair that covers the head or some kind of veil? Some will even say both, but if we carefully examine verse 15 it would seem that we would be getting a clearer picture of what was being referred to in the earlier verses when it mentions the words, “covered,” “cover” and “uncovered."
“But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her FOR a covering."
If the covering is long hair then the words “covered” or “cover” which are synonymous to “covering,” should be understood as long hair as well. Then it makes sense when it says that it is shameful or dishonorable for a man to pray or prophesy with his head “covered” because they are referring to long hair. Now logically speaking wouldn’t being “uncovered” or “not covered” then mean short hair? Therefore, if to be covered refers to “long hair” then the opposite should be true, in that to be “uncovered” should be understood as having “short” hair. This is not complicated at all to understand it is basic logic.
* You Should Naturally Know Right From Wrong by Just Looking…. (III)
If these verses do not move you yet then here’s one that should definitely blow your mind. Paul asks you to make a judgment call in verse 13 as if one should naturally see a problem because he asks you to:
"Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered?"
If “covering” really meant a veil then one would have to explain why anyone would possibly come up with a judgment that a woman praying or prophesying WITHOUT A FABRIC VEIL ON THEIR HEAD WOULD LOGICALLY OR NATURALLY LOOK WRONG? Someone needs to explain this logically. Be honest, does looking at someone doing this naturally create a thought that a veil is missing? I have never seen or heard anyone say: "What a shame she is not wearing a veil on her head” after looking at a woman with long hair while praying or prophesying, that would be ludicrous. There is no NATURAL or NORMAL reasoning to make such a judgment. But if the word “uncovered” were to mean "short hair." then it would make logical sense. Because if I see a woman who has a manly haircut doing these holy things like we read in verse 5, then I can naturally judge that something doesn’t look right. Also, the very next verse continues this line of thinking that things should be obvious to understand by mere observation in nature.
"Doth not even NATURE itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him." 1st Corinthians 11:14
Note that verses 13 and 14 are two consecutive questions both of which asks you to NATURALLY ASSUME that there something wrong by SEEING a woman’s head to be uncovered (meaning having short hair) and a man having long hair (meaning being covered). I would like to also add that it is NOT jumping from a “veil” in 13 and then suddenly to “hair” in 14 like some would like to suggest, because you will note that verse 15 refers back again to the woman which FLAT OUT STATES the “covering” to mean “long hair.” Therefore there is NO EXCUSE to not understand the previous verses.
By this simple understanding we can then understand the part where it states that it is shameful or dishonoring for a man to pray or prophesy with his head covered, meaning covered in long hair, like in verses 4:
“Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonoureth his head.”
This “dishonoring” of the head fits perfectly with verse 14 where it mentions that it is “shameful“ for a man to have long hair, therefore the topic is the same throughout the verses in that the head covered in this verse refers to “long hair. ”
I should also add that these verses in NO WAY imply that the covering on the man can be placed on or taken off, like some like to argue. It’s SIMPLY SAYING that it is a dishonor if a man prays or prophesies in LONG HAIR. The same should be understood in verse 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.”
Again, they are NOT implying something that can be put on or taken off but that the man should not cover his head (with long hair) and the reason because he is the image and glory of God. This same idea should be included in the verses that refer to women like in verse 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.”
This verse is often misinterpreted like verse 5 when it’s simply mentioning in the same tone as the previous verse that if a woman has short hair then let her head be shaved BUT if it is a shame to be shaven let her be covered in long hair. It’s really not complicated once you understand what it means to be covered or uncovered. Everything else starts to make sense when you read the other verses knowing that they are referring to hair.
I can only imagine how lost one must be when they are stuck on one or two verses that to them seems questionable but not take into consideration all the other verses that point to the “covering” as long hair and “uncovered” to mean short hair. Therefore, given all this logic and proof, how can one conclude that they are referring to a hat, bonnet or veil?
Again, how can one have logical judgments or conclusions that by merely looking at a long-haired woman performing such holy acts without a veil that one would automatically assume that there is something off? It makes no logical sense. So before anyone gets riled up why not first try to EXPLAIN 1st Corinthians 11:13 because I suspect most people will simply ignore it. In short, therefore, the whole veil doctrine is wrong, it cannot be substantiated and should be rejected.
@878 4436 I do think we agree on several points and I appreciate your nuanced, clearly thoughtful view.
Firstly, I do not claim that a covering/veil is a primary issue, it is certainly not something I'm hung up on or attempting to use as a crutch. I believe the walk and relationship comes first, and outward expressions will follow.
Secondly, if I read you right we are in agreement that women ought not cut their hair (it is their covering, and their glory).
However, I think where we disagree is for specifically praying and prophesying (v. 5 and 13). I'm reading in the word "only" because v. 4 and 5 are specifically talking about praying and prophesying. Assumedly, men can wear hats when they aren't praying, correct? But they're to remove the covering when praying as given in v. 4. The reverse is applied to women. Furthermore, men are not shave their heads every time they pray? It clearly refers to a separate covering being removed. Why not apply the same logic to the women's covering? Finally, and forgive my inability to quote specifics, again I would direct you to Mike Wingers break down of this...the specific word "covering" elsewhere, more often than otherwise refers to a cloth covering of some kind (The example im recalling is I believe malchizidec, butchered spelling lol, covering his head leaving the temple on his way home). Certainly if a woman wants to wear a head covering outside of those specific times I see no issue with that. I take the meaning to be a symbol of the man's headship in the relationship, and submission to authority (tell me how oppressed I am 😘). But my reading of this passage, in full context, is that it is required in this specific setting.
Regarding v. 13, it seems as though you're adding our modern cultural viewpoint on headcoverings, in your asking whether seeing a women praying without a headcovering would be out if place. Keep in mind at the time of Paul's writing it *would* have been out of place, and that's the audience he's speaking to specifically.
Ultimately I think God meets us where we're at. If I see a woman with cut hair, or not wearing a covering I am not condemning her because I don't know where she's at with her walk. I know for myself it's something that the Lord has been putting on my heart. And I think if I were to rebel against that then I could be in muddy water (more from the spirit of rebellion than anything). I've been very diligent in reading the Word on this as well as multiple interpretations/arguments. In fact the church I attend and that my husband was raised in takes the long hair = covering view, but in my reading I'm feeling led otherwise. To each their own.
I do find it interesting there is no where near the same level of contention over whether men should take off their coverings (hats) during prayer. Why do you think this is? Personally I think it's a negative association with head coverings in our modern culture. Which to me is all the more reason to cover my head! Modern culture can suck eggs!
Anyway, I appreciate the dialog and your scholarly take on this subject. I trust you're following as close in all matters of salvation 😊

If we follow those who subscribe to the doctrine of women wearing veils, then it can be argued that the most often cited verse is 1st Corinth. 11:5, which states:
“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.”
According to many of those who believe women ought to wear veils this verse supposedly implies that a woman’s uncovered head is a woman who does not wear a veil. Such a woman is either dishonoring God, their own physical head or her husband for failing to wear it which implies that they are in disobedience. Some have gone so far as to say it is a sin. Another assumption is that the woman being referred to already has long hair and since they conclude that the covering is a veil then it must be referring to an “additional” covering otherwise it would clash with verse 15 stating that God gave women long hair for a covering. Another conclusion is that women ought to be covered ONLY when praying and prophesying and for men to be uncovered, which would make it seem as though it were something that can be placed on or taken off like a veil. You’ve probably noticed by now it takes several assumptions to reach the conclusion that women ought to wear a foreign object on their heads, despite the lack of evidence.
* Does the Bible really give a clear command that women should wear a veil?
The first thing that everyone must understand when talking about this topic is that it DOES NOT say the word “veil” or “cloth” or any other physical headwear, as far as the KJV is concerned. It surely mentions that the woman’s head should be covered, and no one disputes this, but it does not say that it should be covered with a veil, a shawl, a bonnet, a cap, or any other specific headwear. The verses in question within 1st Corinthians 11 mention the words, cover, covered, uncovered, and covering, but that does not mean we can translate this to mean specifically a veil, a shawl, a bonnet, a cap, or anything else similar. In fact, it would seem more like an adverb rather than a noun. Nevertheless, the word “cover” is unfortunately interpreted by head covering promoters to mean a veil above all other types of headwear, even if there is no evidence to prove that beyond a shadow of a doubt. To do so would mean that one is trying to read more into the verse than what is stated and is not truly seeking an exegesis of the Scriptures.
Some have claimed that they are referring to a physical synthetic head covering because the Scriptures seem to indicate that there are two exclusive conditions to wear one and that is when a woman is either praying and/or prophesying. But does this interpretation stand up to logic?
If we were to believe that under certain conditions a woman ought to wear a physical head covering, then it stands to reason that under OTHER conditions a woman should be able NOT to wear one. For example, if you are going to argue that a woman ought to wear a veil because the Bible claims there are two conditions, then it is logical to presume that any other condition would ALLOW them to be without one, like speaking in tongues, interpreting tongues, healing the sick, casting out devils, etc.
Now if a head covering promoter should claim that there are MORE conditions, then they admit that there aren’t really “two” conditions thereby nullifying the two-condition argument.
The reasoning behind why the “two-condition” argument is important for veil promoters is because if these words were actual conditions, then it would seem as though the covering were something that can be placed on or taken off. So even though it does not literally or EXPLICITLY say anything about putting on or taking off a veil. Veil promotors form this belief based on what they believe to be IMPLIED and not by a direct statement. Many people like to believe this because they ASSUME that praying and prophesying are two conditions instead of seeing them as mere examples.
* Praying and prophesying were meant to be viewed as examples, not conditions…
Now I can understand how someone can mistakenly conclude praying and prophesying as conditions in verse 5, on the surface, but once you read the rest of the verses in context one cannot reach that conclusion. If they were meant to be conditions then why would Paul say in verse 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.”
If the reason for men not to cover their heads in this verse is because he is the “image and glory of God,” then why assume Paul was saying that there were only TWO conditions in verse 4? Wouldn’t 7 override any supposed conditions? Shouldn’t that make you question that perhaps Paul was just giving a couple of examples? But let’s continue.
Verses 8 and 9 give us another understanding that Paul must have been referring to praying and prophesying as examples because he adds the order of creation into the mix.
“For the man is not of the woman: but the woman of the man. Neither was the man CREATED for the woman; but the woman for the man.”
If Paul states that the creation order has something to do with the reason as to why women ought to cover (in long hair) and men to be uncovered (aka have short hair) then we can conclude that this doctrine must be bound in NATURE. That is to say that it must have taken place since the creation of Adam and Eve and BEFORE the manufacturing of veils or hats, and BEFORE the creation of churches, which is another reason why hair easily fits the mold.
This is confirmed when reading verses 13 and 14 when Paul asks you to make an observational judgment that if it is comely (aka pleasant looking) for a woman to pray uncovered (in short hair) and that even NATURE teaches us that a man with long hair is shameful. Why would Paul ask you to think that something as unnatural as a woman without a hat would look off and then say something as natural as long hair would look off on a man? Paul was saying that not being covered in long hair especially while praying looks uncomely and in the same breath he continues and says men with long hair also looks naturally wrong.
* So Is the Covering Long Hair or a Veil? …..
If we examine all the verses from verses 4 to 15 without bias, we should at least agree that at certain points the verses are referring to physical heads and hair. Now some have tried to argue that the covering is somehow Jesus or men (some erroneously add husband here as well). But since the passage in 1st Corinthians 11 already states that the man or Jesus are already referred to as the heads one should not mix things up and add that they are the covering especially when this word is referring to something else entirely, Plus it wouldn’t make sense if we were to replace the word covering, covered or uncovered with Jesus, man or husband.
So, do the words “covered,” “cover,” “uncovered” and “covering” refer to long and/or short hair or some kind of foreign head covering? Some will even say all the above, but if we carefully examine verse 15 we would be getting a clearer picture of what was being referred to in the earlier verses when it mentions these words.
“But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her FOR a covering." KJV
So if the covering is long hair, then the words “covered” or “cover” (which are synonymous with “covering”) should be understood as long hair as well. If that’s true, then to be “uncovered” would mean “short hair.” If so, then we can get a better picture of verse 4 when it says that it is shameful or dishonorable for a man to pray or prophesy with his head “covered.” Note the similarity of verse 4 to verse 14 that’s because they are both referring to being covered in LONG hair.
Where in England are you from? I used to live in England. You sound like you are from the south of England?

Jesus designed some fun hats for me to wear. One with colorful flowers, one with a basket of summer fruit, with animals. Some more flower hats with white flowers. Red onws they are so nice and fun.
The basket of fruit is a joke about my ten days of persecution in a mental hospital for believing Jesus is coming back. He did come to the hospital and turned it into a church.
When you see the basket case and the summer fruitcake you know the end is near.
The animals are about Him making me a weirdo pet prophet singing new name seal songs to call the animals
1. Christ said the Kingdom of God is within each of us. The father, the son and the holy spirit is inside each us and he told us to seek it.
2. We do not know what good and evil is. Thats why when Eve ate the fruit of “good and evil” she became trapped in her mind thinking she is God to judge others based on her “good and evil” inside her mind.
3. The Order of God was “God over man, man over woman, woman over children”. The order was backwards when Eve believed the Serpent and Adam believed Eve. So it became “Satan over Eve, Eve over Adam” - This is the sin cycle. Its repeated in the world where Satan continues to use effeminacy to turn kids into his image so they don’t know God’s identity, our father’s identity in Christ.
4. When we do wrongs, its not a sin. Its wrong but its the sin nature in us that causes us to do the wrongs.
5. Again, as human beings we cannot hate anybody, we have to love all people but the world is trying to make kids go against their earthly fathers. If kids dont love their earthly fathers they dont love God, that goes for anybody else they hate too.
6. People who call themselves Christians and go to church and read the Bible, it doesnt mean theyre Christians. There are many that do this but just doing this doesnt mean they know God, Christ said the Kingdom of God is within, its not on the outside. The Kingdom of God is not in the church nor in the Bible, its in us. The Bible only points us back to God in his kingdom within us but many Christians worship churches, church leaders, religions, the Bible, wordly leaders etc. over God. God is inside each of us, his Kingdom is in us. He wants us to seek him within.

Role of women in Christianity is quite explicit and very male dominated.
1 Cor 14:34-35 , 1 Tim 2:11-12.
Is this how you would really want to live?
cor 11;16 But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.
it was the tradition and custon and culture of those times. nothing else
in 1 pet 3 we read about women coming to the church meetings with plaited hair so women did not cover the hair.
thirdly, the Bible says that everything has to be gounded on at least TWO witnesses. there is only ONE place in the Bible where you read about the head covering and that is also not very clear since we read in the very passage that the hair of women is their covering.
in the new testament we dont follow the traditions of old. we follow Lord Yeshu who set us free from the external things. now the reality is Christ Himself. not the things on the outside
those who wear head coverings rely on the Flesh which is SIN and that is the WRONG REBELLION... thats bondage to sin...
Jewish woman do this...
