Q. 21.-Is there scripture for saying that the curse upon the ground was partially removed after the flood?

A. I think Lamech's prophecy in connection with Genesis 8:21, 22 would establish this. The words in the last verse seem hardly to refer wholly to the flood,-"I will not again curse, neither will I again smite," and this with direct reference to the regularity of the seasons. The last might refer to their necessary interruption by the deluge, but Lamech's words clearly go farther back.

Q. 22.-"Where is it that a woman praying or prophesying with her head uncovered dishonoreth her head ?

A. Wherever it would be wrong for a man to cover his head it is right for a woman to cover hers. This is very simple in application.
