For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man.
All Commentaries on 1 Corinthians 11:7 Go To 1 Corinthians 11
Augustine of Hippo
AD 430
This image made to the image of God is not equal to and coeternal with him whose image he is, and it would not be, even if it had not sinned at all. The meaning of the words of God when he said: “Let us make man to our image and likeness” must be understood. They were not spoken in the singular but in the plural. For man was not made in the image of the Father alone, or of the Son alone, or of the Holy Spirit alone, but in the image of the Trinity.
