3 | Men having long hair a disgrace? | 1 Cor 11:7 | Immanuelsown | 208617 | ||
srbaegon, Just wondering why your answer is ----"In both cases, the answer is most likely," "No." Is there anyplace where it says, they had short hair? Or do we assume this, because it was the custom of the time? Or do we get this belief from 1 Cor.11 where it talks about being covered, shaved, shorn, or in verse 14 "if a man have long hair it is a shame unto him" ? The question then arises, why then was it not a shame for Samson, and Samuel to never, in there lives be allowed to cut their hair? Although Samson's was cut once. Seems like long hair to a man is either a shame or it isn't, vow or no vow. We may say, "it was different in Old Testament times." But isn't it believed that John the Baptist, may have also been under a Nazarite vow, also having long hair. I'm not defending long hair for men, just cant see where it is ok one time, and not another. It would appear as though Jesus would have had the Vow of a Nazarite on his life, more than any man ever born, In Him Imm |

4 | Men having long hair a disgrace? | 1 Cor 11:7 | srbaegon | 208619 | ||
Hello, Culturally, the time period was one where men kept the hair cropped shorter. This is noticed from art and decorative pieces of the time. The Nazirite vow was for a specific period at the end if which the hair was cut. The three you mention are utterly unique as lifelong Nazirites. Jesus could not have been a Nazirite for more than one reason: 1) Is 53:2 says "he had no form or majesty that we should look at him, and no beauty that we should desire him." A Nazirite sticks out like a sore thumb. 2) Nazirites could not consume anything made with grapes. a) Jesus would have been conspicuous at the wedding of Cana had he not had any of the wine. b) In Mark 14:25 he says that he will not drink the wine again until later, inferring he had done so previously. 3) Num 6:6 says the Nazirite shall not go near a dead body. Jesus touched dead bodies. Steve |
