Thematic Bible: The flesh for the dead
Thematic Bible
Cutting » The flesh for the dead » Forbidden
Both great and small men will die in this land. They will not be buried, they will not be lamented, nor will anyone gash himself or shave his head for them.
You should never mourn by shaving bald spots on your heads, shaving the edges of your beards, or slashing your bodies.
You are the sons of Jehovah your God. Do not cut yourselves nor shave your forehead for the sake of the dead.
Never slash your body to mourn the dead, and never get a tattoo. I am Jehovah.
