Question

tattoos are a sin. i keep coming across people tonight asking tattoo questions and at least one of the answers says its a sin. so tell me the exact verse, or whatever where it says it is a sin. i have a bible on hand so i will know if that is really what it says or not. find it for me so i can look it up, because i dont know where to start.

Answer 1

I believe the scripture you are looking for is Leviticus 19:28, which states "You must not make cuts in your flesh for a dead person, and you must not make tattoo markings on yourselves. I am Jehovah."
