Such a teaching is fundamentally incorrect for the whole lesson shows how divinity is connected to humanity, “Note the way the chain of divinity links humanity — God, Christ, the man, the woman”. So, this lesson is fully applicable even now.

Then, on the part you mentioned about women not allowed to do any service, hear what Inspiration says:

“From Paul’s statement in 1 Timothy 2:12, “I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence,” you will note the meaning here is, that the woman is to be in subjection to the man as God had ordained, and not that she is forbidden to hold the office of a teacher. Again we quote, “Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience as also saith the law.” (1 Cor. 14:34.) Read the chapter and you will see that Paul wishes to establish order in the churches, for there was great confusion by speaking in unknown tongues. Therefore, to silence the confusion, he says: “Let your women keep silence in the churches.” He is not forbidding them to speak if they have a duty to perform. If this lesson was heeded in this age there would be a great change for the better in the house of God.” Shepherd’s Rod Vol. 2p.168.2

kindly harmonize this

Praise be to God for revealing this timely truth to us through His servant the prophet (VTH)

To answer to your question. Firstly, you will notice that by these verses (1 Cor 11:3) God shows us the way of the chain of divinity links to humanity – God, Christ, the man, the woman.

Secondly, since by putting on a head covering a woman puts aside her glory thus humbling herself before God, this is applicable to both the married and the unmarried, because God demands humility from both of them.

Thirdly, the covering of the woman’s head when approaching God symbolically sets the man (her head) aside and thus comes before God. By this if she is unmarried she puts aside her father since an unmarried woman should be under her father’s house.

Fourthly, what about the widowed woman? Can her glory (her hair) be sufficient to approach the throne of God? NO! Hence both the married and the unmarried have to cover their heads when men put his off when praying or teaching the Scriptures.

Lastly, if it is a shame also for an unmarried to shave her hair let her cover her head as the Scriptures put it.

Yours for the truth
