For a man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God, but woman is the glory of man.
But I want you to understand that the head of every man is Christ, the head of a wife is her husband, and the head of Christ is God.
You have given him dominion over the works of your hands; you have put all things under his feet,
“Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man shall his blood be shed, for God made man in his own image.
This is the book of the generations of Adam. When God created man, he made him in the likeness of God.
To the woman he said, “I will surely multiply your pain in childbearing; in pain you shall bring forth children. Your desire shall be contrary to your husband, but he shall rule over you.”
Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.
With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse people who are made in the likeness of God.
