16But if any man seems to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither do God's assemblies.


In Context

13 Judge for yourselves. Is it appropriate that a woman pray to God unveiled?

14 Doesn't even nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a dishonor to him?

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

16 But if any man seems to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither do God's assemblies.

17 But in giving you this command, I don't praise you, that you come together not for the better but for the worse.

18 For first of all, when you come together in the assembly, I hear that divisions exist among you, and I partly believe it.
