- 1 Corinthians 11:11 A digression which the Apostle useth, lest that which he spake of the superior tie of men, and the lower degrees of women in consideration of the policy of the Church, should be so taken as though there were no measure of this inequality. Therefore he teacheth that men have in such sort the preeminence, that God made them not alone, but women also: and woman was so made of man, that men also are born by the means of women, and this ought to put them in mind to observe the degree of every sex, in such sort that mutual conjunction may be cherished.
- 1 Corinthians 11:11 By the Lord.
- 1 Corinthians 11:13 He urgeth the argument taken from the common sense of nature.
