Why do people tattoo bible verses on themselves when the bible forbids tattooing?
>>1130000
The dominant Christian philosophy is that the "old law" e.g. Leviticus doesn't really apply anymore
Now a Jew getting a Bible verse tattooed, wew lad
>cutting your hair
>eating shellfish
etc. are all old law, like >>1130003 said.
btw nice fucking quads

Even most modern jews are in agreement that most of the bible was written for ancient hebrews, not modern people.
Did Romans have any law about writing on their body? I see a lot of faggots getting Latin phrases on themselves.

this reminds me of a dank history tattoo idea I have. Full sleeve, get Trajan's column tattooed on your arm.
>>1130000
tattoos are only in leviticus because it was related to worship of other gods

I don't think I've ever heard this, I know most Jews today, outside Israel at least, are largely irreligious and secular/atheist, who just think it's hogwash, not that it wouldn't apply anymore. For those that believe though, it's timeless in meaning.

Ahh, I see, and since Christians are already polytheists, it would be redundant. Thank you.

It's not exactly like that, for Christians it's a new covenant.
For Jews it's that they're all a bunch of atheists now.

I like that.
On a more literary note,I have considered getting the Judecca tattoo on my back

I mean, at the very least it would have been frowned upon as it was a more Goth practice. But there is no evidence to my mind that they did outlaw it.

I've never heard of a Roman having any tattoos.
