How does Deuternomy 22:5 apply today? What do you think?
I think understanding that the law came from the curse of adam And eve would tell us that it doesn’t apply to those in Christ . But was a result of eves curse being differentiated from Adam , whereas beforehand they were one.
adam was placed above eve only because she listened first to the serpent and led to thier downfall it was part of the curse beforehand they were both made in Gods image, not needing to separate
women are told to wear long hair as a covering also because of the curse , are made subject to thier husband also because of the curse . The law must be understood as Gods response to mankind’s sinfulness coming as a result of the curse it wasn’t from the beginning
Gods design for man and woman is what we have in Christ no distinction
“So God created man in his own image,
in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.”
Genesis 1:27 KJV
woman is made subject to her husband here as a result of the curse of sin and death
“Unto the woman he said, I will greatly
multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and
thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.”
Genesis 3:16 KJV
the law then comes much later as a result of the beginning fall. So in the law you have a severe distinction between
Men and women taking the form of the curse. So in that law you have a bunch of carnal commands to reveal the destruction of the curse of sin upon man . In Christ however we see a return to Gods design
“There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free,
there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.”
Galatians 3:28 KJV
God doesn’t care what a person wears if it’s decent and not provocative , he cares about how we treat other people. When a woman dresses provocatively , it provokes lust in some men or the opposite . So how we dress needs to be respectable and all but honestly I don’t think it’s about the clothes we wear in Christ but more About those fine linens wire and clean he promises for our lives
