Did Paul let his hair grow long?
I asked this on the wrong thread. This question and the Nazarite vow has always been an interest to me...any serious thoughts about this?

Well according to the way some folks interpret the Scripture as long as he cut it again sometime then it was never long. (long = uncut)

Re: Did Paul let his hair grow long?
It was customary and cultural for Jewish men to have longer hair especially their sideburns. It was not thought of as feminine in any way it was just part of the culture.

Paul did have issue with the long Hellenistic male hair styles of Corinth.

No he did not. Show me where. And before you use Cor. you had better look at your Greek NT and see what Paul really wrote and how it is completely mistranslated.
The sentence is a statement, not a question. The text reads: "Nature itself does not teach you that if a man has long hair it is a dishonor to him."
Nature teaches us that a man's hair grows long. It is the culture which teaches us that something is shameful or not......as long as it is not expressly prohibited in God's word.
