Is Man the Head of Woman? Revisiting Kephale ("Head") in 1 Cor 11:2-16: Preston Sprinkle

In this solo podcast episode, I return to my ongoing work on women in church leadership as I dig deep into the interpretive complexities of 1 Cor 11:2-16. For my defense that Paul is talking about head coverings and not hair length/styles in this passage, see these two blog posts: https://theologyintheraw.com/pauls-language-of-hairstyles-or-head-coverings-in-1-cor-11-the-meaning-of-kephale-part-11/ AND https://theologyintheraw.com/the-cultural-context-for-the-hair-length-style-vs-head-coverings-debate-in-1-cor-11-the-meaning-of-kephale-part-12/ For my interpretation of kephale in Ephesians 5:23, see this post: https://theologyintheraw.com/what-does-head-kephale-mean-in-pauls-letters-part-8-ephesians-523/ For my previous two podcast episodes on the meaning of kephale in ancient literature and in Ephesians 5, see episodes 1,162 (March 18, 2024) and 1,164 (March 25, 2024). -- If you've enjoyed this content, please subscribe to my channel!
