- consecration:
- Heb. separation, This expression, "the consecration, or separation, of God is on his head," denotes his hair, which was the proof and emblem of his separation, and of his subjection to God through all the peculiarities of his Nazarate. St. Paul probably alludes to this circumstance in
1 Corinthians 11:10 For this cause ought the woman to have power on [her] head because of the angels.
by considering a married woman as a Nazarite for life, i.e., separated from all others, and united to her husband, to whom she is subject.
