I believe that we can all agree that cross dressing is an abomination.

What I disagree with is the notion that this verse is primarily about women's pants.

Now, when it comes to pants, on both men and women, the subject of modesty becomes relevant.

Re: More on Skirts

Deut. 22:5 says nothing about military attire, crossdressing or modesty.

The issue is "mixing things"

Mixing things, both in Deut 22 and in the parallel passage in Leviticus chapter 19, are the central issue.

Do not mate different kinds of animals.

“‘Do not plant your field with two kinds of seed.

“‘Do not wear clothing woven of two kinds of material. Lev. 19:19

Do not plant two kinds of seed in your vineyard; if you do, not only the crops you plant but also the fruit of the vineyard will be defiled.

10 Do not plow with an ox and a donkey yoked together.

11 Do not wear clothes of wool and linen woven together. Debt. 22:9

It is in this context of not mixing things we find Deut. 22:5. It is another example of things we do not mix.

I'll say this, I get a kick out of the banter from EB. Anyone taking an internet forum so serious they get their feelings hurt, needs to sign off, permanently.

Scott?

Deuteronomy 22:5 is an abomination unto God. Deuteronomy 22:11 isn't an abomination unto God. From verses 1-4 we are being told about how to conduct yourself with your neighbor, nothing about mixing. No mention about an abomination until we get to Deuteronomy 22:5 . In Deuteronomy 22:6 speaks about the attitude towards an innocent animal. Just like the honoring of mother and father will prolong your days, the same goes with treatment towards animals nesting. That is all about attitude, nothing about mixing, nothing about an abomination. Deuteronomy 22:8 "When you build a new house, you must build a railing around the edge of its flat roof. That way you will not be considered guilty of murder if someone falls from the roof. That is speaking of builders liability, nothing about mixing, no mention of it being an abomination unto God. Deuteronomy 22:9 is agricultural advisement, no mention of an abomination unto God. Deuteronomy 22:10 is advisement concerning livestock, no abomination unto God. Just more agricultural advisory warnings. Deuteronomy 22:11 has more to do with hygiene in hot climates, apparel which causes perspiration. Deuteronomy 22:12 instructs the Israelite to fashion their cloak with a religious memorial. Again, no abomination nothing about mixing. Deuteronomy 22:13-30 deals with legal issues with marriage, divorce, incest, and virgins. No abominations unto God, and nothing about mixing.

Deuteronomy 22:5 is about crossdressing.

Pants were worn by priests, by men, by soldiers. No women wearing pants. So pants were found in the Hebrew Men's dept in the Levitical Macy's.

Deuteronomy 22:5 ain't saying a thing about modesty.

Good grief.

Re: More on Skirts

I didn't get my feelings hurt by any means BUT I have seen insults against some of the posters and unless people are dead to their feelings, it would have to hurt. Some posters have been rude and I don't like that - not rude to me but to some of the posters who were explaining their view point. If they didn't get hurt - fine they are one tuff person. I think things need to be said in love and not demeaning to others.

Like Jason B said, anyone taking an internet forum so serious they get their feelings hurt, needs to sign off, permanently. That is very sobering advise on so many levels it isn't funny. Again, thumbs up JB.
