What part of the bible condemns wearing multi-fibered shirts?

I hear it is in Leviticus?  If so, can someone please cite its exat location (using those numbers) so I can look it up?

[MODU]

Hmmmm . . . ummm . . . I dunno.  hahaha

19;19: You must observe my statutes. You may not allow two different kinds of animal to mate together. You are not to plant your field with two kinds of seed, nor to wear a garment woven with two kinds of yarn

Well, there goes my pea soup green polyester/cotton blend zoot suit.  *sigh*  And that was my favorite outfit to go out to the disco to pick up women too!

Bloody hell. Looking at my wardrobe i'd probably have to go around naked or in a cloth sack if I listened to Leviticus

60% Cotton, 35% Polyester, 5% Lycra. Damn. Sweater is illegal.
T-shirt underneath is 100% Cotton though, so I don't have to go naked.

It would be interesting to see how many Jews actual observe that piece of the law.  I know my cousins don't.

Technically, this would still allow clothing made of mule hair, right?  (So long as the mule itself was bred by a gentile.)

I wonder where God stands on the multi-grain breakfast cereal issue.

Well it just says you cant plant two different types of seed, not that you can't eat them together.

[Joe Republic]

Couldn't help noticing this little gem too:

You may not allow two different kinds of animal to mate together.

Yeah, sure, I'll get right on that.  No it's fine, I haven't got anything better to do than sit around making sure trillions of animals in the world stay strictly with their own species.

Why? That's three kinds, not two.

[Swing low, sweet chariot. Comin' for to carry me home.]

this was simply a law teaching us not to be double minded.  Yes, those under the Old Testament still had to obey it, but God wasn't concerned about those specific items, he just used it as a teaching tool.

1Cor 9:8-10 (Paul quotes Deut 25:4 and explains its meaning) "It was written in the Law of Moses: 'Do not muzzle an ox while it is treading out the grain.' Is it about oxen that God is concerned? Surely he says this for us, doesn't he? Yes, this was written for us, because when the plowman plows and the thresher threshes, they ought to do so in the hope of sharing in the harvest."

Somehow I think the Religious Right ignores this part of the Bible.

[Bono]

Somehow I think the Religious Right ignores this part of the Bible.

Christians are not bound by old testament laws that are not restated in the new testament.

[A18]

Depends. A distinction must be made between moral, civic, and ceremonial laws.

As it should.

We ignore parts of the Law of Moses that weren't carried into the New Testament.  We are under a New Covenant with its own set of laws which include some laws from the Law of Moses and some laws that are written in Genesis PRIOR to the Law of Moses...but ALL our laws DO have a legal precedent in the Old Testament regardless.  Some predate the Law of Moses (we have Noah's diet, not the diet of the Jews) and some of our laws are retained from the Law of Moses (no sexual relations with close relatives).

The New Covenant superseded the Law of Moses.

Took you a long time to find this thread ... I'd been expecting you to point this out ever since the thread was created, actually.

Yeah, I just noticed it, I don't spend much time searching.
