•What traditions?
•Oral instructions and teachings when Paul
founded the congregation
•Different ideas as to the meaning
•Covering the head disrespected God
•Romans covered their heads while praying to idols
•Male temple prostitutes covered their heads to avoid recognition
A look is taken at the Jewish, Roman and Greek customs and how it applies to this passage
They were turning the sacrament into a festive
meal reminiscent of pagan meals
•Drunkenness was outrageous
•This was an opportunity for the wealthy to flaunt
their wealth
Congregations would be meeting in Greek homes, what did they look like?
