Re: More on Skirts

No one in the NT, or in the OT made the claim that "abominations" were a special class of sin different than any other sin.

Since no one was ever accused of violating this commandment, we do not know what Moses had in mind when he penned it. The word "modest" is not mentioned in Deut. 22:5. Nor is tis verse quoted when modesty is addressed in the NT. Is there Scriptural support to connect this verse to modesty ?

There is no scriptural support for linking it to modesty that I can find.

The principal of a separation of gender roles/distinctions is found throughout the bible however.

Cross dressing is an outstanding representation of disregard for gender distinction. and that is what Deut 22:5 seems to be addressing, most would agree.

In our culture, the most definitive symbol of femininity for women is a dress/skirt, for men, breeches.

If you want to follow this line of thought, go for it, if you don't agree wear what you want. Men, please post pics of you in your wives dresses.
