Gregory the Great, on 1Cor 11:3

Gregory the Great · c. A.D. 540–604
1Cor 11:3 · Douay-Rheims
“But 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.”
On this verse:
“He saw the linen cloths lying there, and the cloth that had been over his head, not lying with the linen cloths but rolled up separately in one place. What do we believe it means, brothers, that the cloth from the Lord's head is not found with the linen cloths in the tomb, except that, as Paul attests, God is the head of Christ, and the incomprehensible mysteries of his divinity are separated from the knowledge of our weakness, and his power transcends the nature of creation?”
