OET interlinear 1COR 11:8

uW Translation Notes:

for

Here, For introduces a basis for what Paul has claimed in 11:7, most specifically for the claim that “woman is the glory of man.” In 11:10, Paul gives the result of what he has claimed in 11:7. Because of this, in some languages 11:7–8 might seem like they interrupt the logic or argument. If that is true in your language, you could mark 11:7–8 as an interruption by using parentheses or some other natural form in your language. Alternate translation: “As a side note,” or “By the way,”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

οὐ & ἐστιν ἀνὴρ ἐκ γυναικός, ἀλλὰ γυνὴ ἐξ ἀνδρός.

not & is man out_of woman but woman out_of man

Here Paul is speaking about a man and a woman. These words could refer to: (1) the first man and woman that God created: Adam and Eve. In the story in Genesis 2:18–25, God has already made Adam. He makes Adam sleep, takes a rib from his side, and uses it to create a woman, Eve. In this sense, woman is from man. Alternate translation: “the first man was not from the first woman, but the first woman was from the first man” (2) “men” and “women” in general. In this case, Paul would be referring to the role that men play in procreation. Alternate translation: “men do not come from women, but women come from men”
