Judge for yourselves: is it proper that a woman pray unto God uncovered?
All Commentaries on 1 Corinthians 11:13 Go To 1 Corinthians 11
John Chrysostom
AD 407
Judge ye in yourselves: is it seemly that a woman pray unto God veiled? Again he places them as judges of the things said, which also he did respecting the idol-sacrifices. For as there he says, judge ye what I say: c. 1 Corinthians 10:15 so here, judge in yourselves: and he hints something more awful here. For he says that the affront here passes on unto God: although thus indeed he does not express himself, but in something of a milder and more enigmatical form of speech: is it seemly that a woman pray unto God unveiled?
