Agreed.One aspect of this debate that seems clear enough to me and probably most others here is that Paul is referencing a cultural custom (the wearing of head-coverings) to define an eternal principle (that women are to be submissive to their husbands).
Yes. This is evident in, 1 Tim. 2:9The real meaning of modesty in the Bible is simply not calling attention to oneself by the way one dresses.
I will have to disagree with this. It must depend on the culture of where one lived. I vividly remember the 50s, 60s....The thing is hats were standard wear for everybody up to a few decades ago. It wasn't until the mid-60's to early 70's that people stopped putting a hat on before going outside. We have Steve's grandfather's old fedora which he never stepped outside without wearing in our closet
