1 Corinthians 11:4-10 Again About Heads 31 May 2024

1Co 11:4 For any man to pray or to prophesy with his head covered
shows disrespect for his head.
5 And for a woman to pray or prophesy with her head uncovered
shows disrespect for her head;
it is exactly the same as if she had her hair shaved off.
6 Indeed, if a woman does go without a veil,
she should have her hair cut off too;
but if it is a shameful thing for a woman
to have her hair cut off or shaved off,
then she should wear a veil.
7 But for a man it is not right to have his head covered,
since he is the image of God and reflects God's glory;
but woman is the reflection of man's glory.
8 For man did not come from woman;
no, woman came from man;
9 nor was man created for the sake of woman,
but woman for the sake of man:
10 and this is why it is right for a woman
to wear on her head a sign of the authority over her,
because of the angels.

Not that I understand everything, but saint Paul gives reasons. And the Corinthians letter is considered as the word of God inspired by the Holy Spirit.

Moses & Angels

Yes, Moses reflected God's glory for a time. Woman should cover hear head because of the angels.
It appears that on top of our heads, there is more to see than we realize.

Prayer

Jesus, guide us in respecting our heads.
