1 Corinthians 11:7

* The two F.O.G. Bibles & Commentary below are currently a work in progress.

A man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man.
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
For a man indeed ought not to have his head covered, because he is the image and glory of God, but the woman is the glory of the man.
World English Bible (WEB)
For{G1063} a man{G435} indeed{G3303} ought{G3784}{(G5719)} not{G3756} to cover{G2619}{(G5745)} his head{G2776}, forasmuch as he is{G5225}{(G5723)} the image{G1504} and{G2532} glory{G1391} of God{G2316}: but{G1161} the woman{G1135} is{G2076}{(G5748)} the glory{G1391} of the man{G435}.
Strong's King James
(7) For surely a man shouldn't have his head covered, possessing the image and glory of יהוה YAHWEH but the woman is the glory of man.
The F.O.G*
[7] A man shouldn't cover his head because he reflects יהוה's glory and authority directly. But a woman radiates man's glory in a unique way—not lesser, but beautifully different in purpose.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
for a man, indeed, ought not to cover the head, being the image and glory of God, and a woman is the glory of a man,
Young's Literal Translation
