The background of this law was that Israel, after being rescued from slavery, was between Egypt and Canaan. This is probably why the KJV, written in the early 1600s, is closer to the literal translation saying, “ye shall not.print marks upon you.” Further, the word tattoo did not enter into the English language until the late 1700s. The word for marks, also used here alone, has an uncertain root, so we’re not really sure what the word means. Leviticus 19:28 literally translates, “And a cutting for the dead you will not make in your flesh, and writing marks you will not make on you I am the Lord.” The word writing refers to inscribed or engraved symbols/words and is used only here. For example, the NIV reads, “Do not cut your bodies for the dead or put tattoo marks on yourselves. Since the word tattoo does appear in this verse in some popular English translations, this argument seems straightforward. Some Christians condemn all tattooing as immoral because God clearly forbids them in Leviticus 19:28. The Bible makes no specific reference to tattoos as we understand them in modern times. The short answer is nothing, at least nothing definitive.
