Catherine, that’s the thing man is always doubting the Father our creator words,. When the Father says man, he means mankind man and women. Maybe your not a Christian so I understand you have no knowledge of this SIN. Man look for all manner of excuses just to commit sin’s and then end up doubting the Father words. That why he said: Dose Shell Not Mark The Body!! Your body is his Temple!!
I am aware of all of the rules of Leviticus which reading through now makes it very clear that they aren’t from todays times as much of it could not be followed, but I know far too many religious people who are covered in tattoos or who have physical relations out of marriage or who get divorced, simple things like cutting the hair at the sides of your head or clipping your beard all things that unless you too follow you are not “free from sin” the world is a very different place today. I have my way of faith and do not think that my life is going to be judge as a life of sin because I have some tattoos.
