The point of the writing (that I can determine) is that the lines between women and men should not be blurred to the point where it's difficult to determine who is male and who is female within a culture's context.
But to answer your question, there is no command from Moshe in regard to the length of a man's ... or a woman's... hair. There are various rulings on hair (male and female), but they are not of the topic you refer. Whether it's simply a cultural thing for Corinth is a debate I've taken part in, but I will allow you and the Spirit to decide on that because it controls your interpretation of veils/head covering. -- slade -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Terry Clifton Sent: Sunday, 24 October, 2004 19.48 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [TruthTalk] Question I have a question that possibly Jeff or Slade or someone else familiar with the Mosaic law might be able to answer. Paul states in the NT that men should have short hair and women should have long hair. My question is this: Is there any place in the OT where this was ordered by God? If not, was it a long standing tradition of men, or was it a cultural thing at the time of Paul? ---------- "Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer every man."
