Greek Commentary for 1 Corinthians 11:9
Because of (δια dia with accusative case) the woman. The record in Genesis gives the man (ανηρ anēr) as the origin (εκ ek) of the woman and the reason for (δια dia) the creation (εκτιστη ektisthē first aorist passive of κτιζω ktizō old verb to found, to create, to form) of woman. [source]
