baldness
n
:
the
condition
of
having
no
hair
on
the
top
of
the
head
[
syn
:
phalacrosis
]
From:
Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary
Baldness
from
natural
causes
was
uncommon
(2
Kings
2:23;
Isa
. 3:24).
It
was
included
apparently
under
"
scab
"
and
"
scurf
,"
which
disqualified
for
the
priesthood
(
Lev
. 21:20).
The
Egyptians
were
rarely
subject
to
it
.
This
probably
arose
from
their
custom
of
constantly
shaving
the
head
,
only
allowing
the
hair
to
grow
as
a
sign
of
mourning
.
With
the
Jews
artificial
baldness
was
a
sign
of
mourning
(
Isa
. 22:12;
Jer
. 7:29; 16:6);
it
also
marked
the
conclusion
of
a
Nazarite's
vow
(
Acts
18:18; 21:24;
Num
. 6:9).
It
is
often
alluded
to
(
Micah
1:16;
Amos
8:10;
Jer
. 47:5).
The
Jews
were
forbidden
to
follow
the
customs
of
surrounding
nations
in
making
themselves
bald
(
Deut
. 14:1).
