1 Corinthians 11:2-16

Clearly one of the more challenging passages dealing with, not only the relationship between men and women (husbands and wives), but also discussing head-coverings.

Possible interpretations of “head” include the idea of “source” or “prominence” and don't necessarily have to do with authority.
