this sentence is cut off from the former to which it ought to be joyned and added to these following with which it hath no agreement Vers. 2. The Ordinances as I delivered them unto you The vulgar Translatour here translates it praecepta by traditions we understand here from the circumstances of the words following rites and ceremonies prescribed by the Apostle for order and decency in the publike assembly in their Church Vers. 3. The head of every man is Christ Christ is called the head of man because he is every way the most principall and glorious man that ever was The head of the woman is the man That is the man in that he is a man is a person more excellent then the woman as she is a woman and the head of Christ is God Both in respect of his humane nature in which regard his Father is greater than him Iohn 14.28 and in respect of his office as mediatour Vers. 4. But every man praying or prophesying having his head covered dishonoureth it It seemes there were some which taught the Corinthians that their men should pray and prophesie with their heads covered and women uncovered This abuse the Apostle corrects if a man cover his head he debaseth himselfe and casts himselfe into servitude from that eminency whereby he is placed of God and to the glory of Christ his head is diminished For he shames the head when he doth not declare that principality which God hath given him over his wife for the covering with a vaile was a signe of subjection Pauls purpose is to shew the Soveraignty of the man and subjection of the woman the women in the orientall parts with a vaile covered the whole head and face Paul speakes not of such a covering of the head as French Pastors use in prophesying when the upper part of the head is covered the glory and majesty of the countenance still appearing Vers. 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 The Christian women appeared open and in publick uncovered from a phantasticall imitation of the she Priests and Prophetesses of the Gentiles when they shewed their Idols as their Pythiae Bacchae or Menadae and the like who used when they uttered their Oracles or celebrated the rites and sacrifices of their gods to put themselves into a wild and extaticall guise having their faces discovered their haire dishevelled c. The Corinthian women conceiting themselves when they prayed or prophesied in the Church to be acting the parts of the Priests or celebrating sacrifice were so fond as to imitate them and accordingly cast off their Vailes and discovered their faces immodestly in the congregation and thereby dishonoured their head that is were unseemly accontred and dressed on their head M. Mede on 1 Cor. 11.5 vide Grotium To prophesie signifies sometimes strictly to foretell things to come as both men and women did in the primitive times Ioel 2.28 ● In a more large notion to interpret and open Divine mysteries contained in Scr●pture for the instruction and edification of the hearers 1 Cor. 14.3 3. To praise God in hymnes and Psalms 1 Cor. 11.5 For because Prophets of old did three things 1. Foretell things to come 2. Notifie the will of God unto the people 3. Uttered themselves in musicall wise and in a Poeticall straine and composure Hence it comes to passe that to prophesie in Scripture signifies the doing of any of these three things and among the rest to praise God in Verse or Musicall composure Two places of Scripture 1 Chron. 25.1 c. 1 Sam. 10.5 prove this Vers. 7. He is the image and glory of God Holinesse and righteousnesse is common to them both but he is so called because God hath placed more outward excellency and dignity in the person of a man then of a woman carrying the marke of his soveraignty and dominion not onely over other creatures but in respect of the woman her selfe who is likewise said to be the glory of a man because it is his honour to have such an excellent creature subject to him Vers. 10. Power over her head That is her vaile which is a signe of her husbands power and superiority over her Among the Corinthians the covering of the head was not as it is with us a token of preheminence and superiority but a signe of subjection therefore the Apostle would have the women of Corinth when they came into the Congregation to have their heads covered to signifie their submission and reverence unto the Ministery of the Gospell Because of the Angels That is not onely the Ministers of the Church but Gods heavenly Angels which daily wait upon his children and guard them in all their waies Pareus inclines to this latter rather Some think the Apostle argues from the example of the Angels we should imitate their modesty who were wont to cover their faces to testifie their subjection toward God So Vorstius The Apostle hath respect unto the Legend reported in the Book of Enoch which we see was read in the Church in the Apostles time by the second Epistle of St. Peter and that of St. Iude of those Angels that are reported there to have been seduced by the beauty of women out of Gen. 6.2 Not as if the Apostle did suppose that report to be true or did intend to give credit to the book but that by alluding to a passage commonly known he may very well be thought to intimate that a like inconvenience to it not disputing whether true or not for the present might fall out in the Church Thorndikes Review At first all Presbyters were Angels of the Churches as appears by this place that seems the most naturall meaning of his words for Tertullian in divers places of his book De velandis virginibus intimateth one reason of vailing womens faces in the Church from the scandall of their countenances Thorndikes service of God at religious assemblies Ch. 4. Vers. 14. Doth not even nature it selfe teach you that if a man have long haire The Greek word 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 is to nourish his haire long Long haire is an argument either of effeminatenesse or cruelty Iob 5.5 Psal 68.22 For that cause Paul commands them not to nourish their haire Raynold de lib. Apoc. Vers. 16. If any man seem to be contentious the Greek signifieth rather is pleased to be desires or hath a will to be yea boasts and prides himselfe in it Contentious Greek a lover of victory Vers. 17. Now in this that I declare unto you I praise you not that you come together not for the better but for the worse Throughout the whole Scripture the Sacrament of the Lords Supper is not so fully handled as in this Chapter and that upon this occasion The Corinthians it seems had much

Others judge it to have bin a fault in that Church therefore say the Apostle reproveth it in the 14. Chap. commanding women to keep silence in the Churches 3. A woman may be said to prophesie when she singeth Psalmes or readeth the Scripture Mr. Perkins In Tertullians time those that professed Virginity took upon them to sit with their faces unveiled in the Church taking it for a priviledge of their ranke to disclaime the subjection of the sex and professe freedome This is the occasion of his Book De velandis virginibus Thorndike of the service of God at religious Assemblies Ch. 6.
