“Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ.”
King James Version (KJV)
11:2 I praise you - The greater part of you.
11:3 I would have you know - He does not seem to have given them any order before concerning this. The head of every man - Particularly every believer. Is Christ, and the head of Christ is God - Christ, as he is Mediator, acts in all things subordinately to his Father. But we can no more infer that they are not of the same divine nature, because God is said to be the head of Christ, than that man and woman are not of the same human nature, because the man is said to be the head of the woman.
1Co 11:1 Dress and Conduct in the Church SUMMARY OF I CORINTHIANS 11: Men in Church to Pray with Uncovered Heads. Women to Be Veiled. Disorderly Assemblies. The Abuse of Love Feasts. The Lord's Supper Profaned. The Lesson from Christ's Appointment of the Ordinance. Must Be Eaten with Solemn Reverence. Be ye followers of me even as I also [am] of Christ. This refers to 1Co 10:33. Like him, they should not seek to "please themselves", but to so act as to save others.
