Ian and Averil's new book examines the section on head covering (1 Corinthians 11:2-16), reviews the historical and cultural background, gives a critical analysis of various interpretations, and some suggestions as to how this section should be helpfully understood and applied today.
Their purpose in writing this book is three-fold: (1) To encourage unity and understanding within the Christadelphian community in accordance with the teaching to exercise tolerance (“forbearing one another in love”) where different interpretations are held; (2) To encourage careful analysis of Bible teaching; (3) To encourage a re-assessment of some of the interpretations of 1 Corinthians 11 which are frequently asserted with great confidence but which, it seems to them, are not adequately supported by Scripture.
