1 Corinthians 11:9 Context
7For a man in deede ought not to couer his head, forasmuch as hee is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man. 8For the man is not of the woman: but the woman of the man. 9Neither was the man created for the woman: but the woman for the man. 10For this cause ought the woman to haue power on her head, because of the Angels. 11Neuerthelesse, neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man in the Lord.
