Matthew Poole and continuators on 1 Corinthians 11:15

15 But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering .

But he saith, if a woman hath long hair, it is a glory to her. Long hair is comely for the woman, and accounted to her for a beauty or ornament, for God hath given her her hair for a covering. There have been Books written about the lawfulness or unlawfulness of mens wearing long hair, and the due or undue lengths of mens hair, the substance of which were too much to transcribe here. That which in these verses seemeth to be commended to us, as the Will of God, in this matter, is: 1. That men and women should so order their hair, as by it to preserve the distinction of Sexes. 2. That men should not wear their hair after the manner of women, either dishevelled, or curled, and tricked up about their heads, which speaks too much of an unmanly and effeminate temper, much more was what became not Christians. And if this be forbidden men, as to the use of their own hair, they stand concerned to consider whether it be lawful for them thus to wear and adorn themselves with the hair of other men and women.
