CHAPTER STUDY WORKSPACE

1 Corinthians 11

Paul addresses headship, men and women in prayer/prophesying, hair and covering customs, and then sharply rebukes abuses of the Lord’s supper. Their gatherings magnify social division and selfishness instead of proclaiming the Lord’s death, so some have experienced serious temporal chastening.
