Animated Bible

Christians,only Please...?

how come every bible movie or animated bible cartoon show peter with a beard,does the bible describe peter as having a beard?

If you wish to know how the Apostles looked like, look no further than the Orthodox Church, which is the Original Christian Church established by the Apostles Peter, Paul and James.

The Apostles followed the Scripture to the very detail.

And ye shall not shave your head for the dead with a baldness on the top; and they shall not shave their beard... (Lev. 21:5)

..and to all men in general, Ye shall not make a round cutting of the hair of your head, nor disfigure your beard (Lev. 19:27)

The significance of these commandments is to illustrate devoting oneself completely to serving the Lord. This outward appearance as a commandment was repeated in the law given to the Nazarene:

"A razor shall not come upon his head, until the days be fulfilled which he vowed to the Lord: he shall be holy, cherishing the long hair of the head all the days of his vow to the Lord..." (Numbers 6:5-6)

The significance of the Nazarene vow was a sign of God's power resting on the person who made it. To cut off the hair meant to cut off God's power as in the example of Samson (see Judges 16:17-19).

Orthodox Monasticism tonsure is a version of the Nazarene vow.
