so imo "cover woman's head" gets the same treatment that "speaking in tongues" does, and becomes an unintelligible ritual that makes no sense, when it could easily be in line with the other vv about "women," women "being silent in church" etc, "woman" here having a spiritual symbology, and "covering her head" having an obvious symbology of its own. And SiT seems no less obvious to me, just gaining the ability to "speak someone's language," i mean we even have an idiom for it lol.
All a beautiful picture of Christ:
Genesis 24:65-67 KJV
[65] For she had said unto the servant, What man is this that
walketh in the field to meet us? And the servant had said, It is my master: therefore she took a vail, and covered herself. [66] And the servant told Isaac all things that he had done. [67] And Isaac(the son)brought her into his mother Sarah's tent, and took Rebekah, and she became his wife; and he loved her: and Isaac was comforted after his mother's death .
Genesis 38:18-19 KJV
[18] And he said, What pledge shall I give thee? And she said, Thy signet, and thy bracelets, and thy staff that is in thine hand. And he gave it her, and came in unto her, and she conceived by him. [19] And she arose, and went away, and
laid by her vail from her, and put on the garments of her widowhood. (A picture of Israel)
Exodus 26:33-34 KJV
[33] And thou shalt hang up the vail under the taches, that thou mayest bring in thither within the vail the ark of the testimony: and the
vail shall divide unto you between the holy place and the most holy. [34] And thou shalt put the mercy seat upon the ark of the testimony in the most holy place .
Exodus 34:33-34 KJV
[33] And till Moses had done speaking with them, he put a vail on his face. [34] But
when Moses went in before the Lord to speak with him, he took the vail off, until he came out. And he came out, and spake unto the children of Israel that which he was commanded.
Prophecy of what He(Christ) would do. HIS work NOT mankinds so NO MANs boast could be in anyone except Christ and Christ crucified.
Isaiah 25:7-8 KJV
[7] And he
will destroy in this mountain the face of the covering cast over all people, and the vail that is spread over all nations. [8] He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord God will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth: for the Lord hath spoken it .
Matthew 27:50-51 KJV
[50] Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost. [51] And,
behold, the
veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;
The veil has been torn. Christ is the Head. Christ is the cover. Those in Christ can enter. They LOVE to quote Paul's scripture(inspired by the Holy Spirit)to continue to glory in the flesh but notice verse 16:
1 Corinthians 11:15-16 KJV
[15] But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering. [16] But if any man seem to be
contentious, we have
no such custom, neither the churches of God.
Romans 2:8-11 KJV
[8] But unto
them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath, [9] Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile; [10] But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile: [11] For there is no
respect of persons with God.
Proverbs 21:19 KJV
[19] It is better to
dwell in the wilderness, than with a contentious and an angry woman.
What does this verse say about Christ and His "another", His body?
