The TRUTH WHY A WOMAN SHOULD WEAR A VEIL OR COVERING ON HER HEAD WHEN PRAYING. Know and Understand the Significance and Importance of The VEIL (Head Covering)

If the wife is commanded to put on a covering or veil on her head when praying because if not, she dishonors her husband, which also dishonors God, how much more is the effect of correcting her husband? This only means that correcting the husband by the wife is a greater dishonor or sin towards her husband and God!

THE ROLE OF THE VEIL WHEN PRAYING

• Every man who prays or prophesies with something on his head dishonors his head. (1Co 11:4)

• But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head unveiled (uncovered) dishonors her head; for that is even the same as if she were shaved. (1Co 11:5 MKJV)

• So if a woman's head is not covered (not veiled), her hair should be cut off. But if it is disgraceful for a woman to have her hair cut off or her head shaved, she should be covered. (1Co 11:6)

Matthew Henry says: The man that prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonoureth his head, namely, Christ, the head of every man (1Co 11:3), by appearing in a habit unsuitable to the rank in which God has placed him.
 The woman, on the other hand, who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head, namely, the man, 1Co 11:3. Note, the sexes should not affect to change places. The order in which divine wisdom has placed persons and things is best and fittest: to endeavor to amend it is to destroy all order, and introduce confusion. The woman should keep to the rank God has chosen for her, and not dishonor her head; for this, in the result, is to dishonor God. If she was made out of the man, and for the man, and made to be the glory of the man, she should do nothing, especially in public, that looks like a wish of having this order inverted. -- Matthew Henry's Commentary on the Whole Bible

So, if the wife is commanded to put on a covering or veil on her head when praying because if not, she dishonors her husband, which also dishonors God, how much more is the effect of correcting her husband? This only means that correcting or dominating the husband by the wife is a greater dishonor or sin towards her husband and God!

Yet, Churches and pastors allowed the wives in their congregations to correct or dominate their husbands! 

One pastor said: "Yes. The wife has the right to correct the husband provided she is in her right relationship with the Lord. Because we will be confident God is there at work." From his very own mouth, this Pastor is caught lying and in rebellion against the commandment of the LORD God (Genesis 3:16).

• Unto the woman the LORD God said…THY HUSBAND…SHALL RULE OVER THEE. (Gen 3:16 KJV)

How can the wife has a right relationship with the Lord, when she is violating the Law and Government in the home that God Himself have instituted? It's high time now to throw away those worldly beliefs that deceive!

BELIEVE WHAT GOD SAYS, NOT WHAT MAN SAYS!

We must now believe God, not any other man or men! Severe punishments from God are awaiting those pastors and whoever teach that the wife has the right to correct her husband! Because this teaching is from the Devil, who is the Chief of the sinning angels "who left their first estate" (Jude 1:6).

MAN IS GOD'S IMAGE AND GLORY. The WIFE IS THE HUSBAND'S GLORY

• A man, in fact, should not cover his head, because he is God's image and glory, but Woman is Man's Glory. (1Cor 11:7)

• For man did not come from woman, but woman came from man; and man was not created for woman, but woman for man. (1Cor 11:8-9)

Matthew Henry says: ...the man is the image and glory of God, the representative of that glorious dominion and headship which God has over the world. It is the man who is set at the head of this lower creation, and therein he bears the resemblance of God.

The woman, on the other hand, is the glory of the man (1Co 11:7): she is his representative. Not but she has dominion over the inferior creatures, as she is a partaker of human nature, and so far is God's representative too, but it is at second-hand. She is the image of God, inasmuch as she is the image of the man: For the man was not made out of the woman, but the woman out of the man, 1Co 11:8.

MAN WAS MADE FIRST, AND MADE HEAD OF THE ENTIRE CREATION

Matthew Henry continues: The man was first made, and made head of the creation here below, and therein the image of the divine dominion; and the woman was made out of the man, and shone with a reflection of his glory, being made superior to the other creatures here below, but in subjection to her husband, and deriving that honor from him out of whom she was made.

The woman was made for the man, to be his helpmeet, and not the man for the woman. She was naturally, therefore, made subject to him, because made for him, for his use, and help, and comfort. And she who was intended to be always in subjection to the man should do nothing, in Christian assemblies, that looks like an affectation of equality. -- Matthew Henry's Commentary on the Whole Bible

• This is why a woman should have a symbol of authority on her head: because of the angels. (1Cor 11:10)

REBEKAH: A BIBLICAL ROLE-MODEL FOR EVERY WOMAN-WIFE TO EMULATE

"a woman should have a symbol of authority on her head: because of the angels." The VEIL, the token, not of her having the power or superiority, but being under the power of her husband, subjected to him, and inferior to the other sex. Rebekah knew this great marriage principle, so when she met Isaac, and was delivering herself into his possession, put on her veil, as a symbol of her subjection to her husband -- Isaac (Genesis 24:64-65).

• And Rebekah lifted up her eyes, and she saw Isaac. And she dismounted from the camel.  (Gen 24:64 MKJV)

• For she said to the servant, What man is this that walks in the field to meet us? And the servant said, It is my master. Therefore SHE TOOK A VEIL AND COVERED HERSELF.  (Gen 24:65 MKJV)
  

Rebekah was greatly blessed by God because of this action which showed her humble submission to her husband. Here, God has shown every woman-wife a role-model that they should follow.
