Description
Independent The Torah's proscriptions of tattoos applied to imitating religio-cultic ways of peoples who don't exist anymore, such as Hittites and Yevusites, and later to any peoples with antithetical ways. However, they do not include socio-cultural customs. The late ultra-Orthodox halachic authority Rav Moshe Feinstein made this point on Jews and jeans based on the injunction "You shall not walk in the statutes of the nations," which he said addressed religiocultic practices, not social customs, and therefore, Jews could wear jeans.
