It appears in various contexts throughout Scripture, reflecting its multifaceted significance in biblical theology and daily life.<br><br>1. <b>Literal Usage</b>: The head is frequently mentioned as a physical part of the body. In <a href="/genesis/3-15.htm">Genesis 3:15</a>, the head is referenced in the prophecy concerning the serpent: "He will crush your head, and you will strike his heel." This passage foreshadows the ultimate victory of Christ over Satan. The head is also a site of anointing, as seen in <a href="/psalms/23-5.htm">Psalm 23:5</a>, "You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows," symbolizing blessing and consecration.<br><br>2. <b>Symbol of Authority and Leadership</b>: The head often represents authority and leadership. In <a href="/ephesians/5-23.htm">Ephesians 5:23</a>, Paul writes, "For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, His body, of which He is the Savior." Here, the headship of the husband is likened to Christ's headship over the church, emphasizing a model of loving leadership and sacrificial care.<br><br>3. <b>Christ as the Head</b>: Christ is frequently described as the head of the church. <a href="/colossians/1-18.htm">Colossians 1:18</a> states, "And He is the head of the body, the church; He is the beginning and firstborn from among the dead, so that in all things He may have preeminence." This highlights Christ's supreme authority and foundational role in the life of the church.<br><br>4. <b>Metaphorical and Figurative Uses</b>: The head is used metaphorically to denote the top or chief part of something. In <a href="/deuteronomy/28-13.htm">Deuteronomy 28:13</a>, the Israelites are promised, "The LORD will make you the head and not the tail; you will only move upward and never downward, if you obey the commandments of the LORD your God that I am giving you today." This promise signifies a position of leadership and blessing contingent upon obedience to God.<br><br>5. <b>Head Coverings</b>: In <a href="/1_corinthians/11-3.htm">1 Corinthians 11:3-16</a>, Paul discusses the practice of head coverings, linking it to the order of authority and propriety in worship. Verse 3 states, "But I want you to understand that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God." This passage has been the subject of much theological discussion regarding cultural practices and the expression of authority and submission.<br><br>6. <b>Judgment and Consequences</b>: The head is also associated with judgment and consequences. In <a href="/psalms/7-16.htm">Psalm 7:16</a>, it is written, "His trouble recoils on himself, and his violence falls on his own head." This reflects the biblical principle of reaping what one sows, where one's actions return upon oneself.<br><br>7. <b>Blessing and Honor</b>: The head is a place of blessing and honor. <a href="/proverbs/4-9.htm">Proverbs 4:9</a> speaks of wisdom, "She will set a garland of grace on your head; she will present you with a crown of beauty." This imagery conveys the honor and dignity bestowed upon those who seek and embrace wisdom.<br><br>In summary, the concept of the head in the Bible encompasses a range of meanings from physical descriptions to profound theological truths about authority, leadership, and the nature of Christ's relationship with the church. The head serves as a powerful symbol of both human and divine order, reflecting God's design and purpose in creation and redemption.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.

Read in the light of the context: "Every woman praying or prophesying with her head unveiled dishonoreth her head" (verse 5). The meaning would seem to be that Nature itself, in providing women with a natural veil, has taught the lesson underlying the prevailing custom, that woman should not be unveiled in the public assemblies.<br><br>George B.

We may distinguish the following meanings:<br><br>1. Used of Men:<br><br>By a slight extension of meaning, "head" occasionally stands for the person itself. This is the case in all passages where evil is said to return or to be requited upon the head of a person (see below).<br><br>2. Used of Animals:<br><br>The word is also used in connection with the serpent's head (<a href="/genesis/3-15.htm">Genesis 3:15</a>), the head of the sacrificial ram, bullock and goat (<a href="/exodus/29-10.htm">Exodus 29:10, 15, 19</a> <a href="/leviticus/4-4.htm">Leviticus 4:4, 24</a>), the head of leviathan (<a href="/job/41-7.htm">Job 41:7</a>, Hebrew 40:31).<br><br>3. The Head-Piece:<br><br>It is used also as representing the top or summit of a thing, as the capital of column or pillar (<a href="/exodus/36-38.htm">Exodus 36:38</a>; <a href="/exodus/38-28.htm">Exodus 38:28</a> <a href="/2_chronicles/3-15.htm">2 Chronicles 3:15</a>); of mountains (<a href="/exodus/19-20.htm">Exodus 19:20</a> <a href="/numbers/21-20.htm">Numbers 21:20</a> <a href="/judges/9-7.htm">Judges 9:7</a> <a href="/amos/1-2.htm">Amos 1:2</a>; <a href="/amos/9-3.htm">Amos 9:3</a>); of a scepter (<a href="/esther/5-2.htm">Esther 5:2</a>); of a ladder (<a href="/genesis/28-12.htm">Genesis 28:12</a>); of a tower (<a href="/genesis/11-4.htm">Genesis 11:4</a>).<br><br>4.

(<a href="/2_kings/2-3.htm">2 Kings 2:3</a>); "head-stone" the Revised Version (British and American) "top stone," i.e. the upper-most stone (<a href="/zechariah/4-7.htm">Zechariah 4:7</a>).<br><br>5. Leader, Prince:<br><br>Israel is called the head of nations (<a href="/deuteronomy/28-13.htm">Deuteronomy 28:13</a>); "The head (capital) of Syria is Damascus, and the head (prince) of Damascus is Rezin" (<a href="/isaiah/7-8.htm">Isaiah 7:8</a>); "heads of their fathers' houses," i.e. elders of the clans (<a href="/exodus/6-14.htm">Exodus 6:14</a>); compare "heads of tribes" (<a href="/deuteronomy/1-15.htm">Deuteronomy 1:15</a>), also "captain," literally, head (<a href="/numbers/14-4.htm">Numbers 14:4</a> <a href="/deuteronomy/1-15.htm">Deuteronomy 1:15</a> <a href="/1_chronicles/11-42.htm">1 Chronicles 11:42</a> <a href="/nehemiah/9-17.htm">Nehemiah 9:17</a>). The phrase "head and tail" (<a href="/isaiah/9-14.htm">Isaiah 9:14</a>; <a href="/isaiah/19-15.htm">Isaiah 19:15</a>) is explained by the rabbis as meaning the nobles and the commons among the people; compare "palm-branch and rush" (<a href="/isaiah/9-14.htm">Isaiah 9:14</a>), "hair of the feet. and beard" (<a href="/isaiah/7-20.htm">Isaiah 7:20</a>), but compare also <a href="/isaiah/9-15.htm">Isaiah 9:15</a>. In the New Testament we find the remarkable statement of Christ being "the head of the church" (<a href="/ephesians/1-22.htm">Ephesians 1:22</a>; <a href="/ephesians/5-23.htm">Ephesians 5:23</a>), "head of every man" (<a href="/1_corinthians/11-3.htm">1 Corinthians 11:3</a>), "head of all principality and power" (<a href="/colossians/2-10.htm">Colossians 2:10</a>), "head of the body, the church" (<a href="/colossians/1-18.htm">Colossians 1:18</a>; compare <a href="/ephesians/4-15.htm">Ephesians 4:15</a>). The context of <a href="/1_corinthians/11-3.htm">1 Corinthians 11:3</a> is very instructive to a true understanding of this expression: "I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God" (compare <a href="/ephesians/5-23.htm">Ephesians 5:23</a>). Here, clearly, reference is had to the lordship of Christ over His church, not to the oneness of Christ and His church, while in <a href="/ephesians/4-16.htm">Ephesians 4:16</a> the dependence of the church upon Christ is spoken of. These passages should not therefore be pressed to include the idea of Christ being the intellectual center, the brain of His people, from whence the members are passively governed, for to the Jewish mind the heart was the seat of the intellect, not the head.<br><br>See <a href="../h/heart.htm">HEART</a>.<br><br>6. Various Uses:<br><br>As the head is the most essential part of physical man, calamity and blessing are said to come upon the head of a person (<a href="/genesis/49-26.htm">Genesis 49:26</a> <a href="/deuteronomy/33-16.htm">Deuteronomy 33:16</a> <a href="/judges/9-57.htm">Judges 9:57</a> <a href="/1_samuel/25-39.htm">1 Samuel 25:39</a> <a href="/2_chronicles/6-23.htm">2 Chronicles 6:23</a> <a href="/ezekiel/9-10.htm">Ezekiel 9:10</a>; <a href="/ezekiel/11-21.htm">Ezekiel 11:21</a>; <a href="/ezekiel/16-43.htm">Ezekiel 16:43</a>; <a href="/ezekiel/22-31.htm">Ezekiel 22:31</a>). For this reason hands are placed upon the head of a person on which blessings are being invoked (<a href="/genesis/48-14.htm">Genesis 48:14, 17, 18</a> <a href="/matthew/19-15.htm">Matthew 19:15</a>) and upon the sacrificial animal upon which sins are laid (<a href="/exodus/29-15.htm">Exodus 29:15</a> <a href="/leviticus/1-4.htm">Leviticus 1:4</a>; <a href="/leviticus/4-29.htm">Leviticus 4:29, 33</a>). Responsibility for a deed is also said to rest on the head of the doer (<a href="/2_samuel/1-16.htm">2 Samuel 1:16</a>; <a href="/2_samuel/3-29.htm">2 Samuel 3:29</a> <a href="/1_kings/8-32.htm">1 Kings 8:32</a> <a href="/psalm/7-16.htm">Psalm 7:16</a> <a href="/acts/18-6.htm">Acts 18:6</a>). The Bible teaches us to return good for evil (<a href="/matthew/5-44.htm">Matthew 5:44</a>), or in the very idiomatic Hebrew style, to "heap coals of fire upon (the) head" of the adversary (<a href="/proverbs/25-22.htm">Proverbs 25:22</a> <a href="/romans/12-20.htm">Romans 12:20</a>). This phrase is dark as to its origin, but quite clear as to its meaning and application (compare <a href="/romans/12-17.htm">Romans 12:17, 19, 21</a>). The Jew was inclined to swear by his head (<a href="/matthew/5-36.htm">Matthew 5:36</a>), as the modern Oriental swears by his beard. The head is said to be under a vow (<a href="/numbers/6-18.htm">Numbers 6:18, 19</a> <a href="/acts/18-18.htm">Acts 18:18</a>; <a href="/acts/21-23.htm">Acts 21:23</a>), because the Nazirite vow could readily be recognized by the head.<br><br>There are numerous idiomatic expressions connected with the head, of which we enumerate the following: "the hoary head" designates old age (see HAIR); "to round the corners of the head," etc. (<a href="/leviticus/19-27.htm">Leviticus 19:27</a>; compare also <a href="/deuteronomy/14-1.htm">Deuteronomy 14:1</a> <a href="/amos/8-10.htm">Amos 8:10</a>), probably refers to the shaving of the side locks or the whole scalp among heathen nations, which was often done in idolatrous shrines or in token of initiation into the service of an idol. It was therefore forbidden to Israel, and its rigid observance gave rise to the peculiar Jewish custom of wearing long side locks (see HAIR). "Anointing the head" (<a href="/psalm/23-5.htm">Psalm 23:5</a>; <a href="/psalm/92-10.htm">Psalm 92:10</a> <a href="/hebrews/1-9.htm">Hebrews 1:9</a>) was a sign of joy and hospitality, while the "covering of the head" (<a href="/2_samuel/15-30.htm">2 Samuel 15:30</a> <a href="/esther/6-12.htm">Esther 6:12</a> <a href="/jeremiah/14-3.htm">Jeremiah 14:3</a>), "putting the hand upon the head" (<a href="/2_samuel/13-19.htm">2 Samuel 13:19</a>) and putting earth, dust or ashes upon it (<a href="/joshua/7-6.htm">Joshua 7:6</a> <a href="/1_samuel/4-12.htm">1 Samuel 4:12</a> <a href="http://nasb.scripturetext.com/2_samuel/12.htm">2 Samuel 12</a>; <a href="/2_samuel/13-19.htm">2 Samuel 13:19</a> <a href="/lamentations/2-10.htm">Lamentations 2:10</a>; compare <a href="/amos/2-7.htm">Amos 2:7</a>) were expressive of sadness, grief, deep shame and mourning. In <a href="/esther/7-8.htm">Esther 7:8</a> Haman's face is covered as a condemned criminal, or as one who has been utterly put to shame, and who has nothing more to say for his life.<br><br>In this connection the Pauline injunction as to the veiling of women in the public gatherings of the Christians (<a href="/1_corinthians/11-5.htm">1 Corinthians 11:5</a>), while men were instructed to appear bareheaded, must be mentioned. This is diametrically opposed to the Jewish custom, according to which men wore the head covered by the Tallith or prayer shawl, while women were considered sufficiently covered by their long hair (<a href="/1_corinthians/11-15.htm">1 Corinthians 11:15</a>). The apostle here simply commends a Greek custom for the congregation residing among Greek populations; in other words, he recommends obedience to local standards of decency and good order.<br><br>"To bruise the head" (<a href="/genesis/3-15.htm">Genesis 3:15</a>) means to injure gravely; "to smite through the head" (<a href="/psalm/68-21.htm">Psalm 68:21</a>) is synonymous with complete destruction. "To shake or wag the head" (<a href="/psalm/22-7.htm">Psalm 22:7</a>; <a href="/psalm/44-14.htm">Psalm 44:14</a>; <a href="/psalm/64-8.htm">Psalm 64:8</a> <a href="/jeremiah/18-16.htm">Jeremiah 18:16</a>; <a href="/jeremiah/48-27.htm">Jeremiah 48:27</a> <a href="/lamentations/2-15.htm">Lamentations 2:15</a> <a href="/matthew/27-39.htm">Matthew 27:39</a> <a href="/mark/15-29.htm">Mark 15:29</a>) conveys the meaning of open derision and contempt.
