• Veils or hats as covering
KEY WORDS 
• Uncovered 
• Covered 
• Covering
MEANING 
• The head covering is a symbol of submission to authority which is 
a spiritual reality
DIFFERENT TYPES OF SUBMISSION (1 CORINTHIANS 11:3) 
• The head of every man is Christ. (Genesis 2:7) 
Symbol- The man not covering his head or have long hair. 
• The head of every woman is the man. (Genesis 2:18-21) 
Symbol- The woman covering her head and have long hair 
• The head of Christ is God. (Matthew 26:39, John 5:19) 
Symbol-Jesus humanity is submitting to his deity.
DETAILS ABOUT LONG HAIR 
• The Greek word for long hair is “koma” . 
• This word “koma” means to literally have long hair/uncut hair. 
• It was used in verse fifteen and fourteen concerning both men and 
women. 
• By any cutting of the hair breaks the symbol.
SIGNIFICANCE OF THE VEIL 
Two cultural backgrounds 
• Jewish 
• Greeks/Gentiles
JEWISH 
• Jewish women always cover their heads in worship 
• Covering their heads meant the respect for one’s spouse 
• Reverence and appropriateness in worship and focusing all of life 
on God. 
• It means you are a virgin in public. (Matthew 5:31-32)
GREEKS 
• The head covering wasn’t significant in worship so it was optional.
THE CULTURE IN CORINTH ABOUT HEAD COVERING 
• The culture in Corinth was a mixed culture. 
• For ancient communities a woman that appeared in public with 
hair uncovered was against the national custom. 
• If a woman was without veil in public, she was considered to be 
immodest. 
• It was suggested that public prostitutes who appeared unveiled 
advertise their availability.
CONCLUSION (1 CORINTHIANS 11:15-16) 
• The relationship between authority and submission is a spiritual 
reality and the symbol to support this spiritual reality is shown 
physically by head covering (hair covering). 
• The veil was a cultural and custom practice and since the Jew’s 
culture was based on GOD’s command therefore it is the ideal 
appearance in worship. 
• Paul was promoting unity in the church.
