I don't think that Eve was created with a short yet a feminine hair style. You know why, because you can't wipe Jesus feet with short hair.
Well, I do agree with most of what you said here but I just cannot find the reference to where Eve wiped Jesus feet. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/scratch1.gif" alt="" /> Could you help me out here?

chestnutmare,

Surely you must know that I was refering to the Mary in John chapter 12, sorry I know it offends. How long is long well just ask a 5 year old. A 5 year old can even answer the question "is partial birth abortion wrong" something congress can not.

John 12:3 Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and [color:"FF0000"] wiped [/color] his feet with her [color:"FF0000"] hair [/color] : and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment.

Well William the only thing you have proven here is that Mary had hair long enough to be used as a towel for the Savior's feet. If your taking this verse and extrapolating it to say that Eve was created with exactly the same length of hair then I must say your exegesis is eisogesis. The Scripture is silent on the matter of Eve's particular appearance and where the scripture is silent I believe it is best to be silent.

Now if your trying to make a statement on how long a woman's hair should be according to Biblical standards then by all means present your case but I suggest we start another topic because I do believe we have strayed off topic. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" />
