Do you think that is why Sampson wouldn't cut his hair too?
And why Jesus had long hair?
Thou shalt rise up before the hoary head, and honour the face of the old man, and fear thy God:
I am the Lord.
Leviticus 19:32
I like the beard.
My dad (dry humor) used to say; you’re looking good who’s your undertaker?
I am not sure if Jesus took a Nazrene vow it was a tempoaral thing when finished the hair was to be cut off making way for new growth .You could say to represent new birth .
Hair is used throughout the bible to represent the unseen glory of God . Paul is shown coming off that vow.
Acts 18:18 And Paul after this tarried there yet a good while, and then took his leave of the brethren, and sailed thence into Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila; having
shorn his head in Cenchrea: for
he had a vow.
The Nazarene wow using hair to represnt the unsen glory of God is used to represent the bride of Christ, the church or called the new creature .
The apotle (sent by God) Samson was under a Nazarene vow that represented the bride of Christ the church. A ceremonial law a shadow of the eternal not seen.
It like any ceremonial law profited for zero nothing of it self other than a sign as it was designed to.
His literal hair used in parables had no power. It was dead coming out just as fingernails. You could say hair and nails in the Bible represnt the living dead. They don’t grow they pushed out as refuge waste. .
They were used when a gentile desired to become a inward Jew, born again of the Spirit of God. It did not refer to a outward jew pertaining to the flesh.
Romans 2:29
But he is a
Jew, which is one
inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
Again as a parable a picture of salavation.
Deuteronomy 21:11-13 King James Version And seest among the
captives a
beautiful woman, and hast a desire unto
her, that thou wouldest
have her to thy wife Then thou shalt bring
her home to thine house, and
she shall shave
her head, and pare
her nails; And she shall put the raiment of her captivity from off her, and shall remain in thine house, and bewail her father and her mother a full month: and after that thou shalt go in unto
her, and be
her husband, and
she shall be thy
wife.
The time of reformation had come restoring the nazarene order making one new cerimoinal law using men and woman as one .
Man not to cover his head of hair seeing he represents the unseen glory of Jesus and the woman as a glory covering man and last but not least a women must cover her own glory hair. God not leave her with no glory to cover together the glory of two working as one . Repeating two is the witnes of God .
1 Corinthians 11:14-15 Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair,
it is a shame unto him? But if a woman have long hair, it is a
glory to her: for her
hair is given
her for a covering.
In Revelation a picture of the father of lies, Satan coming in his counterfeit glory
Revelation 9:7-9King James Version And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and
their faces were as the faces of men And
they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions. And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle.
