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 man."
And this is justified from the remarkable fact set forth in the next verse:
8. "For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man."
This same chivalric gentleman also says:
9. "Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man."—1 Cor. xi.
22. "Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord."
Is it possible for abject obedience to go beyond this?
23. "For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the Church, and he is the saviour of the body.
24. "Therefore, as the Church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in everything."—Eph. v.
Even the Savior did not put man and woman upon an equality. A man could divorce his wife, but the wife could not divorce her husband.
