He reproves them, because in holy assemblies,4. their men prayed with their heads covered, 6. and women with their heads uncovered; 17. and because generally their meetings were not for the better, but for the worse; 21. as, namely, in profaning with their own feast the Lord's supper. 25. Lastly, he calls them to the first institution thereof. For just as woman came from man This phrase refers to the creation account in Genesis 2:21-23, where Eve was created from Adam's rib. It highlights the order of creation and the interdependence between man and woman. Theologically, it underscores the idea of complementarity in the roles of men and women, as established by God. This creation narrative sets the foundation for understanding gender roles within the biblical context, emphasizing that woman was made as a suitable helper for man, reflecting unity and partnership. so also man is born of woman But everything comes from God Persons / Places / Events 1. Paul the ApostleThe author of 1 Corinthians, addressing the church in Corinth with teachings on order and propriety in worship. 2. The Church in Corinth A diverse and often divided early Christian community in the city of Corinth, known for its cultural and religious plurality. 3. Creation Refers to the Genesis account where woman was created from man, highlighting the interdependence of man and woman. 4. God The ultimate source of all creation, emphasizing His sovereignty and the divine order of life. Teaching Points Interdependence of GendersPaul highlights the mutual dependence of man and woman, reminding us that neither is independent of the other. This calls for respect and honor in relationships, recognizing the unique roles and contributions of each gender. Divine Order and Sovereignty Everything originates from God, underscoring His ultimate authority and the divine order in creation. This should lead us to humility and gratitude, acknowledging God's hand in all aspects of life. Unity in Diversity While men and women have distinct roles, they are united in their origin and purpose under God. This unity should be reflected in the church, promoting harmony and cooperation among believers. Role of Women in the Church This passage, while affirming the creation order, also affirms the value and essential role of women in the church. It encourages us to appreciate and empower women in their God-given roles. God as the Source of Life Recognizing God as the source of all life encourages us to live in dependence on Him, seeking His guidance and strength in our daily lives.(12) For as the woman is of the man.--An appeal to the original act of creation proves the truth of the previous statement of the interdependence of the sexes. If already (1Corinthians 11:7) the fact of woman's having been taken out of man was used as an argument to prove her subordination, there is now coupled with that fact of the origin of woman that other fact of the perpetual birth of man from woman, to show that there is a mutual relation. The first woman was made out of man; therefore woman is dependent on man. Every man has been born of a woman; therefore man is not independent of woman. In the Greek the word rendered "of" represents a finite act--the word rendered "by" a continued process. But all things of God.--Thus, as usual, St. Paul completes the thought by tracing all up to God. The mediate processes of their origin may differ, but the source of their being is common--they, and all beings, and all things, and the sequence of all things come of God. (See 1Corinthians 8:6; Romans 11:36; 2Corinthians 5:18.) Verse 12. - By the woman; that is, "born of a woman" (Job 14:1). But all things of God. And all things also "through him and to him," made by him, and tending to him as their end (Romans 11:56).Parallel Commentaries ... Greek Forγὰρ (gar) Conjunction Strong's 1063: For.
