20 Awesome Hebrew Tattoos Ideas

there are many “laws” in judaism, many made for ethical reasions, but some were made for jews to distinquish themselves from surrounding tribes of people; possible examples? kosher laws (i’ll use the no pork thing because thats usually the only one that gentiles know of) back in the day villages were much closer togther than now, and for jews living in a place with many religious beliefs they would want to gain something that would give them a sense of community, so they might make different laws, customs, or rituals to define themselves as a separate people, and pork was very prominant to many other tribes living in that area,so stray from pork and boom! people know where your loyalties lie. tattoos may also be the same. many pagan religions marked themselves with tatoos for whatever reasons, and judaism, the first monotheistic religion naturally would have some biases toward that part of the pagan culture, seeing it as an affront to the “one true god” who says make no graven image, christians know this too. but until the state of israel was formed jews just lived amongst everyone else. judaism is foremost a tribe of people (well 12 tribes- but whatever), not an ethnicity or even necesarally a religion. anyway there has been jews living all over the world, imursed (spell check?) in all the cultures of the world, so there is limited rules you have to live by-( except for what is commonly referred to as the ten comandments- that is a solid no…well the murder thing especially i think…) with that in mind, the jewish culture varies from place to place AND with the times! rules that applied then may not apply now! um hello! do i go and sacrifice cattle or sheep?! no! the temple no longer exsists, so again a no-no to jews . tattoos may now be in that obsolete law book. but i guess it all boils down to this if you dont want a tattoo or you want that #8 on the mcdonalds menu get it for g-d sakes! if you are still against them dont get them! we jews do not believe in heaven and hell as the christians and muslims do anyway, so it essentially dosnt matter to much, complete your mitzvah and die- thats the way of it- do good for the world while you can. tattoos dont make you a bad person, thats up to you!
well im forgetting what my argument was about now after rambling, so im going to try and wrap it up…. leave what people do to their own bodies up to them, it has nothing to do with you. if you are scared that you friend or family member is going to hell, thats your thought. not theirs. like i said not everybody percieves things the same way. heaven and hell is something you may believe in but not everybody else does- leave it up to them to decide. shalom

p.s. i dont have tattoos but that dosnt mean somene else shouldnt either.

the bible says alot of things. apparently different people take different scriptures and run with them while ignoring others.i dont think god would mind my tattoos when almost everyone fornicates once in awhile.

Hi. I am a catholic and I just wanted to know if it would be okay to get a bible verse translated in hebrew as a tattoo.

Hi can someone translate “be still” to me?

Also,
is the ancient word ” El Shaddai”(God Almighty) too sacred to be tattooed?!!!

Hope you all take the time to verify the translations offered here. I’m sure they’re right, but how would you really know?
