Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

1 Corinthians 11:14

_ _ The fact that nature has provided woman, and not man, with long hair, proves that man was designed to be uncovered, and woman covered. The Nazarite, however, wore long hair lawfully, as being part of a vow sanctioned by God (Numbers 6:5). Compare as to Absalom, 2 Samuel 14:26, and Acts 18:18.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on 1 Corinthians 11:1-16.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

1 Corinthians 11:14

For a man to have long hair, carefully adjusted, is such a mark of effeminacy as is a disgrace to him.
