[S1E8] The cosmological significance of head coverings


Listen Later

In the new cosmological order inaugurated by Christ, where all believers now serve inside the veil of the most-holy place, men should no longer cover their heads, but women should—and both for the same reason the priests of the Old Covenant did. In the case of men, there is no longer anything between God and them in the hierarchy; rather, man is the glory of God, and should therefore shine forth in the heavenly court. In the case of women, they signify their place under men by covering themselves—since they, as the glory of man, should not compete with God’s glory in the heavenly court.
