<p>11:16 <em>But if anyone seems to be contentious, let them know we have no such custom, neither do the churches of God-&nbsp; </em>As noted on the previous verses, Paul is saying that contrary to what some contentious members wantedto imply, there was no universally agreed custom in the churches about head-coverings. It was a matter of each judging for themselves within their cultural contexts, but bearing in mind the principles of :11,12 (see on :13). It is typical of many contentious individuals to this day that they will argue and assume that their particular fetish of interpretation must be universally accepted in all Christian churches.</p>
