    Does Genesis 3 teach that Adam and Eve's fig-leaf loincloths (v. 7) were unable to cover nakedness?

    Hello! In Genesis 3:6-11, the first recorded effect of Adam and Eve's sin is that they realized they were naked. Because of this, they sewed fig leaves together to make loincloths, but this isn't considered enough, and their dialogue with God reveals they were still naked. Instead, in Genesis...

    Does Exodus 28:42 suggest that exposing the thighs exposes nakedness?

    Exodus 28:42 reads (NKJV): And you shall make for them linen trousers to cover their nakedness; they shall reach from the waist to the thighs [emphasis mine]. Based on references I've come across, it does appear that the command to cover “to the thighs” means they needed to cover all the...

    Rabbi Kirt Schneider

    I'm not trying to be controversial or posting this for debate but I was certainly surprised to read that Messianic "Rabbi does not believe that Gentiles can be converted to Jews. Neither does he encourage Gentiles to try to look like or try to become Jewish." He has changed so much lately. » FAQ

    What is your philosophy on telling teens how to dress?

    I'm a believer in letting kids decide how to dress, but I'm having a strange issue with my daughter (the opposite of what you expect!). My daughter LOVES wearing this full suit every day to school. She is a teenager. She thinks it's "cool". Should I gently encourage her to dress a bit lighter or...

    H&M, a Fashion Giant, Has a Problem: $4.3 Billion in Unsold Clothes

    H&M, a Fashion Giant, Has a Problem: $4.3 Billion in Unsold Clothes I am curious how much this can be summed up to people not liking their clothes versus possible boycott/backlash over their monkey ad. At the same time, retail stores have been struggling as of late, so they could simply be a...

    Bible Verse

    In Deuteronomy 22:5 it says: A woman must not wear men's clothing, and a man must not wear men's clothing. Anyone who does this is detestable in the sight of the Lord your God (New Living Translation). Can someone please explain to me why this is wrong? Does this also apply to modern day times?
