What does the Bible say about beauty?

Answer 1

There are many verses that speak of beautiful women, but the verse that tells women how to be truly beautiful is in the following passage. Here we are told that women should be beautiful from within, "the hidden man of the heart," ornamented with "a meek and quiet spirit;" not from fancy clothes, hairstyles or jewelry.

1 Peter 3:1-6

"Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives;

While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear.

Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel;

But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.

For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands:

Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement."
