1 | Is is a sin for a male to have long hair | 1 Cor 11:14 | fellowlaborer | 161311 | ||
Is it a sin for a man to have long hair? From my studies I read the Nazarite men had long hair. I know Samson and Absalom had long hair. | ||||||
2 | Is is a sin for a male to have long hair | 1 Cor 11:14 | lionheart | 161328 | ||
fellowlaborer, I wont be crude as I dont have any hair to get long.I went through the hole thing of having my hair long when I was younger. I think what Paul may have been dealing with here (this isnt etched in stone mind you) was that some of the things that would distinguish a man from a woman aside from the obvious were becomming less and less distinguishable. I think what he may be saying here is that when things ie. hair, get to a point where a man looks more like a woman than he does a man then there is a problem. If we look at this verse within the context of which Paul wrote it we can see that Paul went into detail about the things regarding men and women. We both know God is not in the habit of contradicting himself. We need when it comes to things like this to be able to look at them within the light of Romans chapter 14 and exercise godly judgement. I will just say this,if you were to come across me on the beaten path someday and you had a hard time telling if I was a guy or not then there is some consideration to be had here. But lets go one step further, what do we consider long and when is long to long? So when it comes to matters that may or may not be disputable lets give heed to Romans 14. I hope this makes some sense. Your brother in Christ, lionheart |
