The main claims of the article "Critical Perspectives: "'I bear on my body the marks...' What does the Bible say about Body Modification?" the author primarily expresses that the writers in the bible never mentioned body modification in any type of way as a whole as stated in this quotation in the article made by the author about passages in Leviticus and The Old Testament, "...this text does not speak of body modification in general, but of specific mourning rites which were practiced by Israel's neighbors, and that its prohibition of such practices was meant to make Israel's cult life different from that of other people and cultures." In which by the tone of the article I do not believe that the author is against tattoos he's just trying to prove a point on what is real, and he also says about how the writings in bible are up to interpretations depending on who you are and what your culture is and what your perspectives just happen to be. The author is writing for an audience of people who are concerned with the writings in the bible and what they have to say about body modification.
