But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.
All Commentaries on 1 Corinthians 11:16 Go To 1 Corinthians 11
Cornelius a Lapide
AD 1637
But if any man seem to be contentious. To be contentious is to contend for renown and victory, not for truth; and here it is to contend that Christian women should not be veiled when they pray in Church, but should be bareheaded, according to the ancient custom of the heathen.
