    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.
  • Rae Mercier on Deuteronomy 22:5 - 12 years ago
    I believe this verse pertains to 'cross dressing', and dishonoring the gender God created you to be.
  • Charity Evans on Deuteronomy 22:5 - 12 years ago
    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.
  • Andre on Deuteronomy 22:5 - 12 years ago
    I beleive in those days and culture a man and womans cloths was spisificly and differently made for man and woman. Today man and womans clothes are still made spesiicly for men and woman, but most of the clothes today are made to be worn by either man or woman... So no a woman wearing pants is not wrong.
  • THE VEED on Deuteronomy 22 - 12 years ago
    Debby, this has nothing to do with garments, back in those days, both men and women were dresses for lack of better words. This is a Hebrewism that means that a woman is not to take the place of a man in bed, or lay with another woman.
  • Debbie W. on Deuteronomy 22:5 - 12 years ago
    I was told if we live by the old testament we would fall from grace. This verse is in the old about wearing anything that pertains to a man
  • Mother Web on Deuteronomy 22 - 13 years ago
    Re: Deut. 22:5 . A woman shall not wear that which pertaineth to a man. It is very clear, any garment that a man has to wear, a woman should not wear it. Pants pertain to men garments not women, so women should not wear such garments.
  • Chris on Deuteronomy 22 - 13 years ago
    @ Al. Verses 28-29 have nothing to do with forcing a woman to marry her rapist. If you read up to verses 25-27, even though that woman is betrothed, she cried out. Rape. The man was then executed. In verses 28-29, there was no crying out, so no rape occurred. It was consensual. Basically it's saying, "Since you wanted to test drive it, now you must buy it. You can never trade it in either."
    Our Father would not make a woman marry her rapist, and then force her to cook, clean, and have normal willing sex with him afterwards. Always put it in context.
  • Debby on Deuteronomy 22:5 - 13 years ago
    think this clearly indicates that women should not wear pants. I intend to change my attire, lest I cause anyone to stumble.
  • Zel on Deuteronomy 22:5 - 13 years ago
    i want to know what this verse mean because i have pray about this .i dont think it is wrong .but i would like to know because i dont want to do nothing god dont want to .thank you
  • Al on Deuteronomy 22 - 13 years ago
    Verses 28 and 29 here are pretty good evidence of not being able to take the Old Testament morality at face value. This is seriously saying is a man rapes an unengaged virgin, he can pay her father and then marry her. So, anyone want to go make some girls marry their rapists?
  • Derek on Deuteronomy 22 - 13 years ago
    laura, from verse 13-30 it speaks of the same subject. if a man takes a wife and then becomes unpleased with her and starts spreading gossip about her so that she recieve a bad reputation, then the parents will bring documentation that she was a virgin so that the man be found a liar. They major issue is the man spreading ill will against her so that she undueingly receive a bad rep!
  • Derek on Deuteronomy 22 - 13 years ago
    Hi Rutha, this is a very missunderstood verse. This is speaking of a man not taking the womens place sexually and a woman not taking a mans place sexually. God does not judge the outward appearance but the heart( 1 Thess 2:4, Rom 8:27) and many others. Remember if that was the case that women couldnt wear mens clothing then they could wear pants because men wore dresses at that time!
  • Rutha Holding on Deuteronomy 22:5 - 13 years ago
    Does this scripture mean a woman should not wear pants?
  • Laura on Deuteronomy 22:13 - 13 years ago
    what the hell does this verse mean? your translation if there was any SUCKS!
