''The Bible claims, '''if a woman cuts her hair, a man's got a right to put her away in divorcement''', because she's not honest with him. We have to get down and preach the Bible here some of these days. Said, "If she bobs her hair, she dishonors her husband." If she's dishonorable, she ought to be put away. You can't marry another one, but you can put her away. Whew. Boy, that—that's going hard; I can feel it. But that's the truth.<ref>William Branham, 53-0609A - Demonology, Religious Realm, para. 226</ref> | |||
''I had a hot one on that down the other day in Shreveport. They was talking about the women, and should women wear long hair. And I said, "'''A woman that bobbed her hair, her husband had a right and a Bible right to divorce her.'''" That's right. That's what the Bible said. That's exactly right. Oh, my. Holy Ghost women setting there, just the way they been taught; that's all… See? Yes, that's… slip, loosely. And if… He said, "Now, if they would cut it, if there's something wrong they had to cut their hair," said, "let her take a razor and shave it all off," and make her hair real slick until it comes out her head. That's right. That's what the Scripture said. It says '''if she cuts her hair, she dishonors her husband. And a woman that's dishonorable has a legal right to be put away in divorce. But he can't marry again now. But he—but he can put her away in divorcement.''' That's right. That's Scripture. Oh, brother, what we need is some question nights. That's right. That's First Corinthians the 14th chapter, if you want to read it. <ref>William Branham, 53-0729 - Questions And Answers On Genesis, para. 76-77</ref> | |||
''I can prove by the Bible that any woman that'll bob her hair has a legal right in the sight of God for her husband to divorce her. Hair… That's the Scripture. Now, if you don't believe it, lay the question up here tomorrow night, and I'll show you. That's right. That's right, but what do we do? The Bible says it's a common, sinful thing for a woman pray with her hair cut short. That's right. And yet we… You put all this make-up on, but what does it do, friend? There's only one woman done that, and you know what God did to her? He fed her to the dogs. So if you see a woman wearing that, say, "Howdy do, Miss Dog-meat." That's exactly what she was. God fed her to the dogs: Jezebel. You know you don't want to be of her daughters, but I don't blame it on you. It's because it's tradition. It's handed right down, and it's a disgrace.<ref>William Branham, 53-1130 - Has The Lord Spoken Only To Moses?, para. 22</ref> | |||
''Looky here. It used to be, a long time ago… And you holiness people, it was wrong for you women to cut your hair. What became right about it, when the Bible said that a, "'''If any woman cuts her hair off, her husband has a right to give her a divorce.'''" Plain teaching, but that's the Bible.<ref>William Branham, 54-0514 - The Seal Of God, para. 98</ref> | |||
''Here not long ago, a man wanted to introduce me to his wife, a great holiness organization. Said, "My wife is going to play the piano tonight, Brother Branham." And I looked at her, and the woman... I ain't making fun of the woman; I don't believe in doing that. I'm only telling what's the truth. And I want you to receive it in the same way of love. I have to be stern once in a while. Yes, sir. | ''Here not long ago, a man wanted to introduce me to his wife, a great holiness organization.

Now, just look what science has done for her. She comes out, first, with her hair chopped off, with one of these Jacqueline Kennedy hairdos, see, or something like that. And you know what the Bible said? '''The Bible actually gives a man, if he wants to, the right to put her away in divorcement''', if she does that. "She's a dishonorable woman, that'll cut her hair." The Bible said so. Right. Didn't know that? Huh? Oh, yeah! I preach too much in California for you not to know that. That's right. Oh, yeah! What good does it do me? They do it, anyhow. You can't take the pig and change his name, make him a lamb. Notice.<ref>William Branham, 65-0429E - The Choosing Of A Bride, para. 157</ref> | |||
