Deuteronomy Chapter 22 Discussion Page 3

Adam answered and replied to God saying 'the wife you gave me, when God asked him hast thou eaten of the tree I instructed you not to? In the case of Due. 22:5, there was and there's still a clear specifications in the issues of man not adoring himself with women apparel and vice versa. God knew human mentality that His word can be questioned and He spelled this law out through moses. It was to be observed physically, mentally, emotionally and otherwise, unlike Adam telling God ' this wife you gave me,' meaning that God should have instructed Eve also. God is Truth.

It's stated in OT The woman shall not wear that which partaineth on to a man, neither shall a man put on a waman's garment in way A woman must not wear men's clothing nor a man wearwomen's clothing : for all that do so are abomination onto the LORD thy God. Brethren devil is trying to manipulate the mind of people to bring styles of clothing and call it unisex making people feel nothing wrong looking modestly in it, if it is right Deuteronomy 22 should have tould us in oternitive we should wear unisex or modenise the opposite sex clothing to fit our body shape and be wearing. Lets not deceive our selves but be sensitive to rebuke devil when his trying to drop idears that are contrary to the will of God in our hearts, stick to what the bible says and dont look for any way to contradict it for such is the strategy of the devil to distroy humanity. His work is to still, to kill and to distroy. So rebuke him let not be you as you do so God will bless you and help you to understand more as you study to know about Him.

Everyone seems to pretend not to understand the post by Abbas James, where he said God speaks before things happen. None is seeing that someone here is implying that God gave the command to Israel because of the heathen nations around. Even the person didn't bother telling us what was meant by the "pertaineth", he just finagled away from it. Another appealed to "Women of God" who wear what they like and do great things... someone even said it wasn't addressed in the NT. Was the Bible supposed to be "NT re-addressing what is addressed in the OT"? Is the NT the "two edged sword" of God Almighty? Why is none defining the "pertaineth" and the "abomination"? And, why do we disagree that unisex clothing was never started by Christians-strictly defined? Where is a woman seen listed among those who go to war in Scriptures, and what weapons were they to use that might have differed from that of men? Which weapons do American women armies use? When did women start going to war?... Why are we deceiving ourselves, modifying the innerrant and unmistakable Word? Let me ask this, pls: now that a woman can be modestly adorned in women trousers, pls, how can a man be modestly adorned in male skirts? Thanks for your answer. Greetings from Nigeria.

Well, my boyfriend is a Baptist and I am a Roman Catholic. I just don 't understand where the division between men 's and women 's clothing is exactly. He can 't answer me directly about it. All he knows is that women MUST wear skirts dresses and men MUST wear trousers, jeans, etc. Jeans, for example, are made differently for men and for women. I believe it pertains to cross-dressers. And I do believe that, as long as you wear modest clothings, it will not be an "abomination " to God.

we need to study words in the Word. and know the history of the time. First if you study the words, it is referring to war garments, something prepared, i.e. any apparatus as an implement, utensil, dress, vessel or weapon :--armour -bearer , artillery, bag, carriage, furnish, and males in armies of the heathen around them, would put a dress womans robe, over their armor to sneak attack enemy, it was a disguise to get in close to attack. And this is part of the law of moses which was nailed to the cross according to Colossians 2:14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross there are various 'laws ' in the bible, the law of moses is gone, it was a civil code for that nation alone, and ceremonial laws which were done away with at the cross, their are health laws that we are not 'under the law ' but we should follow for our own health sake, and the moral law, the 10 commandments which are eternal. SO where in the NT is this issue addressed ? and even in this Deut 22 it is not what everyone thinks.

don 't be lead by what people say,due22:5 not trousers nor skirt it 's about homosexualism and modesty in dressing

Well I love jeans but while me wearing them is like me dis obeying God 's word in: be bible

I am not convicted for wearing pants made for women. I am confused by what people say concerning, Deuteronomy 22:5. The Text is speaking about cross-dressing and homosexuality, there were no trousers at that , the difference in the clothing, was the fabric and sewing style one for male and one for female cloaks, robes, and tunics, just as it is today, with the styling of the clothes that we wear. The trousers for men are made in a different style as those of women. I think some people use this and other scriptures to lord over or control others. Dressing modestly is what matters, therefore a woman can dress modestly in women 's trousers just as she can in a dress, on the other hand women can dress in women 's clothing and it not look modest. Men can dress in men clothing and it look modest, on the other hand it could not look modest. Again Deuteronomy 22:5 is speaking about cross-dressing and homosexuality which is an abomination to God. Traditional and religious, I am neither, but I am spiritual and growing in the Lord, please let the Spirit of God guide me and others who truly want to please Him with our lives. If you can 't help please don 't hinder with your opinions, God is not the author of confusion, so study and explain, don 't just read and give an opinion. Be blessed.

Do you suppose that back in the 1960,s when women and feminism took hold that GOd knew that society would become so acceptting of gays,transgender people.and this is why He wanted people to be what He made them to be.Holy and separate for Him?

The word partaineth means,belongs,owns etc.Therefore,no dress should exchange between opposite sexes,except they are couples-husband and wife are one.

pls let us be realistic, which one is the men 's clothing, is it only the trousers? bcos as we have the men 's shirts, suits, trousers, shoes etc. so likewise the women also have their own trousers, shirts, suit,shoe, etc so which one is really the problem bcos any time they talk about men 's cloth its always refered to only trousers. pls deut. 22:5a is talking about modesty in dressing .Thanks and God Bless you.

I say if it says ABOMINATION, go by it!!

The word if God is true whatever happen now it will never change. don 't add and don 't subract it just obey it

why do we struggle to change the true meaning of the verse? The verse is very categorical that both sex should respect opposite sex 's garments.Woe to anybody disobeying.

This is God 's word and it 's a mystery we need God 's spirit to reveal this chapter of deateronomy 22v5. what I m saying neither old or new testament it matters not the word of Godits his command...The only thing we need it 's revelation, not arguments may God help us

Please i need advice, before anything happen bible has already said it, the Bible says in Deuteronomy 22:5 A woman shall not wear a man 's garment, nor shall a man put on a woman 's cloak, for whoever does these things is an abomination to the Lord your God. I want to ask, since that portion of bible said so, which portion of bible indicates men 's and women 's wear? Thank you as you will advice me.

don 't women 's socks, shirts,shoes, etc pertain to a mans socks, shirts, shoes, etc? so why is it people limits duet.22.5 only to the pants skirt issue? also what about colors that have been domanitally a woman color like purple,pink etc but they also make purplelish colors for men in men shirts etc. i beleive duet22.5 is speaking of crossdressers etc.

I believe that women should wear women 's clothing and that Men should wear men clothing. I ready don 't see were it 's wrong if a woman wears pants as long as they are made for women. shoes are pertaining to man...and We all have to wear them, so what 's the difference ?? They make women 's coats, shoes, boots, gloves, hats, sweaters, eyewear and etc

The body is the temple of the Lord not a cloth is atemple of the Lord.Jesus when he was cleaning his father 's temple that was turn to bussines we say cleaning our body repenting confessing.Deutronomy was is againsts Lesbians Gays.Old days people dressed in Robes which are inform of skirt dress and trouser is mentioned once in the bible Misheck shadreck abidnego refusing to bow to an idol.2 Corithians 8 we just believe in God.I have never been at theological school but why old testament new testament?JESUS come for ....,Malawian youth age 29 thanks

What is so often overlooked is the part that says that it is an "abomination to God. " Anytime in scripture that God calls something an abomination to him it never changes, it was, is and always will be an abomination to God. Compare it with other verses that call things an abomination to God. Sounds like dress is pretty important to God. I for one don 't wear clothing that is feminine and my wife doesn 't wear pants or other masculine clothing.

Firstly mens clothing are designed differently to womens? clothing. Women wearing pants is not the issue. The main issue should be ' 'how they use it ' '. It should not be revealing , , cause distraction or lust. Look at all the women who are being used by God, Joyce Meyer, Darlene etc. Joyce Meyer wears pants and ministers the Word. Darlene uses pants and sings annointed and blessed songs. Hope this helps. God bless.

what we should no is that God is a supreme God. He knows what will happen in years to come, that 's why he made this statement. Deut 22:5 . He also knew that Devil ll misunderstand His people. just obey it. Do not be deceived by fake pastors and Reverends. or you think God is not wise? He knows the implications of allowing that deut 22:5 . if He allows men to wear what belongs to women, and women to wear what belongs to men, that "fallen Queen " will hijack it to deceive His people. "read revelation 17 and 18 " to learn how this woman is ruling the unbelievers in this world. please tell the devil the one you have used me is enough, am not for you anymore. Remember, it 's only a fool that 's trying to adjust the words of God to suit himself instead of adjusting himself to the words. God bless you all.

People just have a wrong attitude towards God 's word. God 's word shouldn 't be modified to suit our needs. We are to adjust to the word of God. Here, the word is very clear. Save your soul by not disobeying God.

Let the Holy Ghost lead and direct your path ,when you find the one and only true God He will lay it on your heart through the Holy Ghost what you should and shouldn 't wear,remember what would Jesus do or say how would he dress today and how would He want his mother or sister to dress like. Pray just let Jesus in your heart,mind and soul. Pray for true directions in Jesus name

i beleive if you truely love the lord you will just follow what the word say and not bebate the word of god just obey

I believe the word of GOD is true there is no two ways about it, about deut. 22:5 'modesty ' I believe is the keyword, I believe what has been designed for a woman should be used by a woman and what is meant for the man should be the man 's. I 've never seen Jesus portrayed as ever putting on trousers but robes may be he was wrong, if trousers are categorically set aside for men. Unless if we may now come to agree that trousers are meant for men, what about shirts and T-shirts, let Christ be our central focus.

Maria, What a humble spirit I feel from you. That is the attitude God looks for in us. The gospel is the death, burial, resurrection of Jesus Christ. He is come that we might have life and have it more abundantly. When the Church was set up on the Day of Pentecost, Peter preached what we must do to be saved. Acts 2:37,38 Repent be sorry for your sins and turn from them ,be baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sins, and we would receive the gift of the Holy Ghost evidenced by speaking in tongues.

I understand why the man would have to marry the women however I don 't understand why the man would have to pay 50 shekels to her father to marry her. I also understand that he should never leave her. why would he have to pay 50 shekles

I believe like Godwin 's comment, I am 69, have never worn trousers, always dresses, skirt, etc. lived in the Suburb of Chicago, Cold, Snow, Ice etc. I want to serve the Lord and one day go to heaven trying to obey his word as I understand it. Hell is not the place I want to go, simply because I want to wear a man 's attire. I will not take that chance.

the word of God is true, so let who has ears to hear and to implement.
