Discuss Deuteronomy 22 Page 9

@Brother Johann,
It is quite unlikely that a lady would cry in the city without being heard. Their cities were not as noisy as ours, and God has been very much aware of such conditions. Also stoning did not prompt without facts being assessed by the elders, sometimes they had to use Urim and Thummim to prove if one is guilty or not.
God bless you.

I just want a clarification on verses 23 and 24: if a soon-to-be-married virgin gets raped within the city and cries out but no one hears her, will she still be stoned to death?

It is in the very Bible that nothing shall be added, nor taking away. There is no justification to take away from what is written with one excuse and another. We should all keep to this Deuteronomy 22:5.

Let everyone of you think for a second, in those days there was nothing as pant or skirt. Men and women wore the same attire. Jesus Christ and his disciples all wore long robes so did the women. Trousers were made by mankind through God's wisdom. The truth is that, those who are religious will eventually crumble. Don't forget what the bible said about religious people. I will encourage all of you to follow the right spirit which is to believe in God with all your heart and know what God wants. God wants us to love him and only him every other things are for him to judge.

Wasn't this just related to God not wanting men to go to pagan temples and worship pagan goddesses by dressing like them?

I don't want to write what I think but I will. God is not concerned about what we wear so much as he is about our hearts. However, it's in the bible for a reason. I believe that he was speaking in a sexual tone. We sometimes take the bible out of context. Today is the day! When I wear pants is it because I think myself to be manly? No! The garment I wear was not made for a man to wear. Although a man wanting to perceive himself as a woman might well wear them. You mean I shouldn't wear my husband's shirt? Say if I was cleaning my house and I put on his shirt because it was more comfortable. It goes back to the heart or the spirit of which it is worn.

It seems there is more discussion about woman wearing men's clothing or pants than men wearing woman's clothing or dresses!! If a man has womens clothing in his closet people seem to think that he is weird or strange.

Old testament is for God's chosen people to follow. If they (Jews) cannot follow EVERY LAW, then God GAVE US (Jews & Gentiles) our Lord, Jesus Christ to provide us with Righteousness because we could not, never will be able to live under God's Laws and commandments. I am Saved by the perfect blood of my Savior. Believe that Jesus Christ was our sacrifice, given by our Father as a FREE gift, no strings attached, other than Believing and having Faith in His Son, that WHOEVER believe in Him, shall have everlasting life. (period!)

It is not good to judge but The point is plain and clear woman should not use what is of men and men should not use what is of woman because it is an abomination. Taking a careful look av the word abomination we can see that the consequences of people violating it is great, which may even lead to death, so biblically it may hinder any and sex that use what is of opposite sex not to enter the kingdom of God. The bible say anybody that violates small of the commandment has violated all and the bible also says all unrighteous is sin. It's advisable to abstain from it. Thanks, may God help up all.

All scripture is given by inspiration of
God, and is for doctrine, reproof, instruction in righteousness so the man of God can be mature. No one scripture is of any private interpretation. We have to compare scripture with scripture, and know that these things that happened in the old testament are to be examples unto us. We have to keep the context of the chapter in mind. God is holy, and requires his people to be holy as he is. Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed holy, but adulterers, and fornicators will be judged. Men and women have special roles in marriage. Men are to build up the wife as the weaker vessel, and wives are to be pure in the manner in which they dress. God looks for inner beauty, and a meek, and quiet spirit which is of great worth to God. Marriage is to be with one man, and one woman who have separated themselves to the Lord. When a man marries his wife, he is to be sure of her virtue. We are to maintain holiness in our homes. God want us to dress as holy people are to dress so that there is a difference from the people of God, from the people of the world.

i want to understant deut 22 vers 5

i want to understant deut 22 vers 5

TWELVE YEARS AGO I READ IN KJV LOST MY NOTES THE BIBLE SPOKE ABOUT THE COLORS THAT THEY WORE IN THOSE TIMES MEN WORE CERTAIN COLORS AND WOMEN WORE CERTAIN COLORS THEY ALL WORE SANDALS AND HAD LONG HAIR,TO BE ABLE TO TELL THE MEN FROM WOMEN IT WAS THERE COLORS,SORRY CANT GIVE BOOK CHPT.VERSE,LOST MY NOTES

Does anybody realize what verse 28 & 29 really reads?

I believe it is referring to the homesexual and lesbian deal. I do not believe a woman will go to hell for wearing pants. If we are to follow the Bible word for word then we would have lots of people killing their own children. read ch 21 vs. 18 to 21 of the same book. shall we start stoning children too?

I really believe this was talking about homosexuality and lesbianisn.. Women taking on the roll of a man and man taking on the roll of a woman..This verse has nothing to do with woman wearing pant to church. Also realize pants were not invented at that time.

What the men wore under their robes I haven't a clue, what the woman wore under their robes, i still don't have a clue. But it is not about the clothes you wear that will save and sanctify you its what's in the heart that counts. Man looks at the outward appearance but God looks at the heart.

If you search this further it was also relaying to the future not the present time in Deut.

I am a pastor and I am not hung up on women wearing pants to church, I m after the hearts and soul. If women are to be convict of wearing pants let the Word of God deal with them not you.

The bible said to study the word, research the word..don't just pick out a certain sentence you want to specify and leave out the meat of the verse. This verse pertains to women and men. Not just the women. tk for listening:)

I beleive the Bible is the infalliable, inspired Word of God and it is literal. It says what it means and means what it says. I recently studied this verse for myself as I had been confused and drawn away from my conviction to dress as a lady of God. I believe that God has created men and ladies differently and He expects us to be different in ALL ways including dress. I will take it a step further and say that I believe God does not want ladies to do a man's work, walk like a man, talk like a man, etc---it was not intended this way from the beginning. Ladies are to be the weaker vessel--a help meet to their own husband...meek, modest, and Godly.

In Deuteronom 22:9 what does divers seeds mean?

I believe that it's very wrong to give your opinion when it comes to the word of God. I believe that God wants us to rightly divide the word when sharing it with others. So, I will give you a rightly divided answer to Deut 22:5. "geber" heb word for man Strong's concordance #h1397 means, strong man, warrior( emphasizing strenght or ability to fight).

"Keliy" hebrew word for "pertaineth" strong's # h3615 means: articles, vessels, utensils such as: hunting or war, of music, tool (of labour), equipment, yoke(of oxen), utensils, furniyure. This should open your eyes of a more understanding to Deut 22:5, Thanks Larry

I believe that God expects us to be different from one another (man vs Woman - Sinner vs Christian ) If we set ourselves out to be different from the world, we will be blessed. You can let your flesh control what you do determines your blessings. Questions? contact me @ Michael Stephen Snead on Facebook.

very nice site I like it........

Why not do what theword say.

These verses are about protection. Protection of the species that the line doesn't die out. He created them male and female. He told them to go and replenish the earth. Ask yourself why the following verse is about allowing the mother bird to live. She is to continue laying eggs so that her species doesn't die out. Today with so much genetic modifying is it too fanciful to believe Brave New World isn't just around the corner where man is reproduced in farms?
It is about distinction of the sexes. If a woman is a woman, feminine and attractive a man will desire her and not another man.
Today we find two men bringing up four baby boys birthed by four surrogate mothers. This is the result of women looking and acting like men.

this verse would have been very obvious to people reading it back when it was written. since men and women both wore the same garments from day to day, mainly robes, then what was left that only would pertain to a man? the answer is armor. women were not to wear armor, which pertains to the man, and fight in combat.

I believe that this verse is referring to women who purposely try to look as manly as possible. Many lesbians are guilty of this. If a woman wears modest feminine looking pants, how is she trying to appear as a man? I've known many Godly women who love and serve the Lord who have short hair and wear pants. It's what's in our hearts that God cares about the most.

The bible is clear, we as women should not wear anything thing that pertain to a man. When you do reseach you will find that women wore dresses and skirts for 6,000 years, it was when the up rising of the feminist when pants were worn as a sign they were a feminist and that they were rebelling againist the word of god. We should believe the whole word of god and not just the new and not the old(testiments). Pants were made for men to wear only. Have you notice that on the bathroom door it has a woman with a dress on and a man with pants on? The world even know unconciencly that a woman suppose to wear dresses!!! I rather do what the word of god say than man, because man can't put you in heaven but god can! The bible says if you love me you will keep my commandments,
it just did stop at his commandments its all of his word. Search the scriptures for in them you think you have eternal life; its in the word of god. Women should not wear anything, that pertainth to a man, I don't care what man say, its what god says that matter, what man is wiser than the god almighty jesus christ?

I think it is very plain what the Bible means. If you are not interested in pleasing Jesus Christ, who was GOD IN THE FLESH ( 1 Tim 3:16,2 Corin. 5:19,St. John 1:10) you will listen to Hollywood and let the world tell you what the bible means. I will not take that risk!!! I choose to believe the Bible! Its not hard to do if you LOVE HIM!!!!

I don't think he i saying women can't wear pants...i think he means when u do wear them, wear them as clothing, not to state u r a man, and act like one.

I believe this verse pertains to 'cross dressing', and dishonoring the gender God created you to be.

Yes, it means that women should not wear pants nor men shirts nor anything pertaining to men. "Being made specifically - or not" is only modifying the disgust that God sees when a woman dresses in what should be a man's; pants are for men. Women ought to look like women even from a distance, one does not need look out for womanly bodily features to tell, women ought to dress like women.
