Review: WHAT THE EARLY CHRISTIANS BELIEVED ABOUT THE HEAD COVERING by David Bercot

This is a short book, another of Bercot's lectures that has been transcribed and edited. This one concerns veiling, an issue that has become obscure even within Christianity.

Not surprisingly, the conclusion reached by the Church prior to the year 325AD was different than that of the the professing Church today, Bercot's account is very readable, but he is careful to show that it was the earlier approach that was biblical, not ours.

The fact that we consider this an unimportant issue says a lot about our idea of obedience. Whether you agree with Bercot's conclusions or not, I recommend it just for causing us to think about it.
