Instead, we interpret the teachings and messages in our own way to make flexible choices. In present times, people don’t take verses in the Bible at total face value. But getting your teens and tweens involved in a youth ministry can be a great way to guarantee they make good choices and won’t do something they later regret.
Young teens are especially exposed to piercing and tattoos. And plenty of people pierce their ears to wear earrings. Currently, it's not viewed as a sin for people to shave or cut their hair regularly. If one wants to follow strict religious rules, that's fine, but it's a bit difficult to do so in today’s day and age. It also prohibits them from wearing clothes made from foreign materials. Yet, the female mummies were still buried in the same location as the royal and elite burials at Deir el-Bahari, suggesting they may have had a higher status than the male excavators originally believed.Īccording to one funerary inscription later translated, one of the women first described as a “royal concubine” was a highly regarded priestess named Amunet.Ī person who wants to abide by all the rules listed in the Bible very strictly should look at some of the other old Scriptures.īy way of example, Leviticus 19 forbids people from shaving their heads or shaving their beards. The fact that this was an exclusively female practice in ancient Egypt usually led male excavators to look down on female mummies with tattoos, assuming the women were of "dubious status." There’s further evidence that women had tattoos on their bodies and limbs from recovered artist figurines of females represented in tomb scenes. The earliest known examples of tattooing were found on Egyptian female mummies dated to 2,000 B.C.
Some of these permanent designs have served many different purposes over the centuries, such as amulets, status symbols, expressions of love, proofs of religious beliefs, adornments, or even punishments for individuals. The tattooing of human bodies dates back thousands of years.
