Re: Submission? Or Power and Control?
The command to greet one another with a holy kiss/kiss of charity is a general command, and thus obligatory through all ages and cultures. However, the particular manner of performing the greeting (literally, "embrace") will vary with the culture. Just as the head covering doctrine is a general command and thus obligatory in all ages and places, yet the particular style of head covering is variable.
Again, just as singing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs is a general command and obligatory today, but the particular style (melodies, rhythms, tunes, and specific lyrics) will vary from culture to culture, locale to locale, and era to era.
