Subject: Men having long hair a disgrace? |
Bible Note: Imm, You say "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." Have you read the passage of scripture that teaches us about the Nazirite vow? See Numbers 6:1-21. Specifically verses 1-5 should answer your question. Pay very close attention to verse 1 and you will see why there is no shame. Considering who set the requirements of the vow it should prove no need for the question to arise at all. Steve |
