All The Head Covering Debates (1 Cor 11): Women in Ministry part 10 00:31:10 – 00:32:42

Mike addresses whether the passage teaches women are not in God's image.

Verse 7 says man is 'the image and glory of God' but woman is 'the glory of man.' It does not say she is NOT in God's image. Genesis 1:26-27 clearly affirms men and women are both in God's image. The Hebrew word 'adam' in Genesis 1 refers to male and female collectively: 'male and female he created them.'
