Did Jesus have a tattoo (Revelation 19:16) | #EP-07 | thebibleshow.xyz | #dailywiththebibleshow #suresh - a podcast by suresh and anusha

there was a vision to john about the battle of Armageddon where he sees Jesus riding from heaven on a white horse, waging war against the beast’s evil forces.in the scripture, it’s written in  Revelation 19:16  “On his robe and on his thigh he has this name written: King of kings and Lord of lords.”

so Some people have read this verse and concluded that Jesus has a tattoo on His thigh—and, therefore, tattoos are good and proper for all followers of Christ today.

However, Jesus was, is, and always a Jew. The Jewish Law in Leviticus 19:28 says“Do not cut your bodies for the dead or put tattoo marks on yourselves. I am the LORD” Jesus, as an obedient Jew, bound by Mosaic Law, would not take a tattoo.

Jesus came to Earth to fulfill the Mosaic Law, not violate it it’s also written in  (Matthew 5:17).

So then, what does it mean that on Jesus’ robe and on His thigh He has “King of Kings and Lord of Lords” written?

The book of Revelation is filled with symbolism, and the description in Revelation 19:16 is symbolic. In the same passage, Jesus’ eyes are said to be “like blazing fire” (verse 12), His robe is soaked in blood (verse 13), and there’s a sword coming out of His mouth (verse 15).

Obviously, none of these descriptions are literal; the name is written on Jesus’ thigh is probably figurative, too. The mention of the name being written on His robe and His thigh could very well mean that the words were not on His skin at all; rather, they were written on the part of His robe that covered His thigh.

In ancient times, a king or noble would often have his title or honorific woven into his garments and engraved upon his blade, its hilt, or its scabbard. Given that the scabbard would hang from a band at the waist, the words on the scabbard would fall at roughly thigh level. This would be a reasonable explanation, given that Jesus would never violate Levitical law by taking a tattoo.

Another possibility is that Christ is pictured as wearing a banner, or a sash, which extends from shoulder to thigh, and it is on this banner that “King of Kings and Lord of Lords” is written.

In any case, it does not seem that Jesus has an actual tattoo. The best way to confirm the truth of the matter is to be with Jesus when He returns to wage war upon those who have taken the mark of the beast. You can see it for yourself.

That’s it it was a small episode so I hope you are enlightened that Jesus didn’t have any tattoo so now the tattoos series come to an end where I made around 3 episodes if anyone didn’t listen to my other two episodes where I talked about temporary or henna and the permanent tattoo is it a sin what does the bible say about those tattoos you can listen to them
