1 Corinthians 11 - Summary

Paul addresses two issues of worship propriety: head coverings (arguing from creation order, nature, and angelic observers that women should be covered when praying or prophesying) and the Lord's Supper. He severely rebukes their divisive celebrations where some go hungry while others are drunk, recounting the institution narrative and warning that those eating and drinking unworthily eat and drink judgment to themselves, which explains illness and death among them.
