A Woman Should Cover Her Head - Because of the Angels
1 Corinthians 11:1 Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ.
1 Corinthians 11:2 Now I praise you, brethren, that ye remember me in all things, and keep the ordinances, as I delivered them to you.
[
Note: At the time 1st Corinthians chapter eleven was written, people did not have a King James Bible. They had to learn from a teacher. So, Paul is instructing them to remember and follow what he taught them regarding CHRIST.
]
1 Corinthians 11:3 But I would have you know, that the head of every man G435 is Christ; and the head of the woman G1135 is the man; and the head of Christ is God.
[
Note: This is the order of things. If you take a look at the definitions for “man” and “woman”, you will see that man is defined as male (husband)and woman is defined as female, specifically a wife. The natural order of things is that men act or present themselves as male (men), and women act or present themselves as female (women, wife).
(Genesis 2:24) Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
(Exodus 20:12) Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
Family structure: Male and female made HE them:
(Genesis 1:26) And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
(Genesis 1:27) So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
(Genesis 1:28) And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
Note: If you have a male angel, which is not flesh (not human) mating with female flesh (human), it is an abomination.

G435
ἀνήρ
anēr
an' ayr
A primary word (compare G444); a man (properly as an individual male): fellow, husband, man, sir.
G1135
γυνή
gunē
goo nay'
Probably from the base of G1096; a woman; specifically a wife: wife, woman.

Note:
Job 38:1 Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said,
Job was a man of GOD, a type of the election. Job was such a good man that he would even ask GOD to forgive his sons in case they sinned. Job was righteous and GOD allowed the devil to test Job.
Job 38:2 Who is this that darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge?
When GOD came to talk with Job, Job had been listening to 38 chapters of babble as his three friends were telling him why things were going so bad with him. GOD asked who are these three friends that have no knowledge? Job should have asked GOD, and not listened to those three friends. Job did not know what we election know today, that GOD gives us POWER over ALL of our enemies and that NOTHING shall by any means hurt us.
(Luke 10:17) And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name.
(Luke 10:18) And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.
(Luke 10:19) Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
(Luke 10:20) Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.
(Luke 10:21) In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes: even so, Father; for so it seemed good in thy sight.
(Luke 10:22) All things are delivered to me of my Father: and no man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whom the Son will reveal him.
(Luke 10:23) And he turned him unto his disciples, and said privately, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see:
(Luke 10:24) For I tell you, that many prophets and kings have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.
Job 38:3 Gird up now thy loins like a man; for I will demand of thee, and answer thou me.
A man is a protector and provider for the family. And he acts accordingly by his very design. A man is male, a woman is female. This has been demonstrated throughout time in this earth age. It's the family structure. Men wore skirts in those days and when they would have to fight, they would take their belt and tie up the skirt between the legs so that they could fight. GOD is telling Job to stand up and act like a man.

1 Corinthians 11:4 Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, G2596 G2776 dishonoureth his head.
G2596
κατά
kata
kat ah'
A primary particle; (preposition) down (in place or time), in varied relations (according to the case [genitive, dative or accusative] with which it is joined): about, according as (to), after, against, (when they were) X alone, among, and, X apart, (even, like) as (concerning, pertaining to, touching), X aside, at, before, beyond, by, to the charge of, [charita ] bly, concerning, + covered, [dai ] ly, down, every, (+ far more) exceeding, X more excellent, for, from . . . to, godly, in ( asmuch, divers, every, to, respect of), . . . by, after the manner of, + by any means, beyond (out of) measure, X mightily, more, X natural, of (up ) on (X part), out (of every), over against, (+ your) X own, + particularly, so, through ( oughout, oughout every), thus, (un ) to ( gether, ward), X uttermost, where ( by), with. In composition it retains many of these applications, and frequently denotes opposition, distribution or intensity.
G2776
κεφαλή
kephalē
kef al ay'
Probably from the primary wordκάπτω kaptō (in the sense of seizing); the head (as the part most readily taken hold of), literally or figuratively: head.
[
Note: So, if a man prays or prophesies and is doing so in the sense of being a woman, or acting as a female (woman), then he dishonours his head. A man should act like a man.
]
1 Corinthians 11:5 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.
[
Note: A woman should act like a female (woman or wife). If she doesn’t, that is as bad as if she shaved her head and started acting like a man. It’s not the natural order of things.
]
1 Corinthians 11:6 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.
[
Note: If a woman is going to act like a man, then shave her head. But if it’s a shame for a woman to be unnatural, then let her be a woman (covered).
]
1 Corinthians 11:7 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.
[
Note: GOD designed everything, so let the natural order of things as GOD designed them be as they are designed.
]
1 Corinthians 11:8 For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man.
[
Note: The woman came from the man and that is the natural order of things.
(Genesis 2:21) And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;
(Genesis 2:22) And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.
(Genesis 2:23) And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.
]
1 Corinthians 11:9 Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.
[
Note: This is speaking directly of gender. There is a natural design to GOD’S natural creation. Man needed a help mate, and by GOD’S wisdom that help mate is female (a woman, or wife). It's also the portal by which GOD, AND HIS children come to the flesh, that is, through woman.
(Hebrews 2:14) Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;
(Hebrews 2:15) And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
]
1 Corinthians 11:10 For this cause ought the woman to have power G1849 on her head because of the angels.
G1849
ἐξουσία
exousia
ex oo see' ah
From G1832 (in the sense of ability); privilege, that is, (subjectively) force, capacity, competency, freedom, or (objectively) mastery (concretely magistrate, superhuman, potentate, token of control), delegated influence: authority, jurisdiction, liberty, power, right, strength.
[
Note: “For this cause”, or for the same reason (that the woman was created for the man) ought the woman to have power on her head. The woman ought to have power on her head the same as the man, meaning the woman should have her head covered in CHRIST. That is the POWER. This is because the angels are male and would be prepared to seduce the woman.
The following is what happened in the days of Noah:
Genesis 6:1 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,
Genesis 6:2 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.
Genesis 6:3 And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.
Genesis 6:4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.
It will be the same leading up to the return of JESUS:
Matthew 24:37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
Matthew 24:38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
Matthew 24:39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
Rather than being born of woman, these angels decided to seduce women and their reason for doing so was to try and stop the seed of CHRIST. These angels have fallen because they left their first estate and came to earth with the purpose of trying to stop GOD’S Plan.
This is why verse “1 Corinthians 11:10” says the woman should be covered (in CHRIST) “because of the angels”. It’s because these angels will be returning to earth in the days leading up to the return of CHRIST.
Revelation 12:7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,
Revelation 12:8 And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.
Revelation 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
Revelation 12:10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.
Revelation 12:11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.
Revelation 12:12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

1 Corinthians 11:11 Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man, in the Lord.
[
Note: Both are one in CHRIST.
]
1 Corinthians 11:12 For as the woman is of the man, even so is the man also by the woman; but all things of God.
[
Note: It’s GOD’S natural design. All that GOD created is good, but when something unnatural creeps in (against GOD’S design), then things deteriorate. So, just as the man in CHRIST has power or protection, so has the woman.
]
1 Corinthians 11:13 Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered?
[
Note: It is not comely that a woman pray unto GOD as a man, being unnatural to GOD’S creation.

1 Corinthians 11:14 Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, G2863 it is a shame unto him?
G2863
κομάω
komaō
kom ah' o
From G2864; to wear tresses of hair: have long hair.
From Dictionary . com:
Tress
noun
1.
Usually, tresses. long locks or curls of hair.
2.
a plait or braid of hair.
British Dictionary definitions for tress (same source):
noun
1.
(often pl) a lock of hair, esp a long lock of woman's hair
2.
a plait or braid of hair
verb
3.
(transitive) to arrange in tresses
[
Note: If a woman is not covered in CHRIST, then it is possible that she will be seduced by the fallen angels when they arrive at the hour of temptation. And nature itself tells you that if a man can be seduced by male fallen angels, that it is unnatural and shameful.
So, even though the head of the man is CHRIST, a man does not cover his head in order not to be seduced by a male fallen angel. That is unnatural and an abomination.
]
1 Corinthians 11:15 But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering.
[
Note: A woman is feminine and beautiful. So the woman needs the protection of CHRIST from these male fallen angels.
Don’t forget that when angels came to notify Abraham that Sarah would have a son, they enjoyed a full meal under a tree when Abraham had Sarah to prepare them a meal. Men and women in the wilderness had angels food (manna) for sustenance during the Exodus from Egypt. Angels can enjoy the same things that flesh man enjoys. I speak this in case anyone has a flawed understanding of the characteristics of angels.

1 Corinthians 11:16 But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, G4914 neither the churches of God.
G4914
συνήθεια
sunētheia
soon ay' thi ah
From a compound of G4862 and G2239; mutual habituation, that is, usage: custom.
G4862
σύν
sun
soon
A primary preposition denoting union; with or together (but much closer than G3326 or G3844), that is, by association, companionship, process, resemblance, possession, instrumentality, addition, etc.: beside, with. In compounds it has similar applications, including completeness.
G2239
ἦθος
ēthos
ay' thos
A strengthened form of G1485; usage, that is, (plural) moral habits: manners.
[
Note: But if anyone wants to argue regarding these things, we have no such habits, neither is there any such habits in any of the churches of GOD. They had no such situations where the woman played the part of the man or the man played the part of the woman, therefore there was no reason to argue or debate regarding that.

Dear FATHER, Thank THEE for Blessing our Study of THY WORD! In JESUS' NAME, Amen!
