That aside, are you sure the meaning of the verse in Psalms is "pierced" ears?
KJV: Psalm 40:6 Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears hast thou opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required.
MY husband (and my son) will most certainly NOT be having their ears pierced. I think it looks girly, and that's the end of that.  I don't care whether David did it or not. |
Yes. The word in the original is "pierced" and appears to be an allegorical allusion to the branding of a "love slave."
