The Role and Work of Deacons: Part 2 - Mike Mazzalongo | BibleTalk.tv 

Head coverings like foot washing were part of the culture of the time, and not something commanded or taught by Jesus or the Apostles. Paul talks about these type of things and how they should be accommodated by Christians of that period. The point was that they weren’t to misuse or violate cultural practices that could bring dishonor to or cause strife within the church. The role of men and women in the church, however, was not based on cultural habits but given by God. That a wife was to submit to her husband in the Lord, for example, was not simply a cultural thing (like head coverings or footwashing) subject to change from generation to generation or from one culture to another, it was an eternal principle not subject to change.
