12 pinklight,

You said:

1 Co 11 says that woman is the glory of man but it does not (no way) say that she is the image of man or even made in the image of man.

Also I see a difference in ‘being made in the image of God (humanity – Genesis) from ‘being the image of God (aner – 1 Co 11).

You are right in that it doesn’t directly say that the woman is made in the image of man. However it does say that she is the glory of the man. What does this mean? How come scripture never says that the man is the glory of the woman? Next question, if the woman is made from a part of the man, could this be thought to be made from his image?

Man is said to be the glory of God. As the glory of God, does this mean that he was made in God’s image? If so, does this mean glory = image of ____ ?

Thoughts?
