Bible verse
but that if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For long hair is given to her as a covering.
1 Corinthians 11:15 · BSB
The verses around it, from 1 Corinthians 11.
11 In the Lord, however, woman is not independent of man, nor is man independent of woman.
12 For just as woman came from man, so also man is born of woman. But everything comes from God.
13 Judge for yourselves: Is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered?
14 Doesn’t nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a disgrace to him,
15 but that if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For long hair is given to her as a covering.
16 If anyone is inclined to dispute this, we have no other practice, nor do the churches of God.
17 In the following instructions I have no praise to offer, because your gatherings do more harm than good.
18 First of all, I hear that when you come together as a church, there are divisions among you, and in part I believe it.
19 And indeed, there must be differences among you to show which of you are approved.
