In Bible times there weren't ceremonies like we have now. The idea of marriage I'm talking about is about being exclusively with one person for the rest of your life, and if there's government recognition of that marriage it makes it harder to dissolve.

She was created because Adam had a need for companionship. The command to procreate came after that, as it was necessary to populate the planet. It almost seems like sex was of no concern when God picked a suitable helper for Adam. I don't know how to fully dissect that info, but it's worth studying.Nathanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06260476419755080242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2743186955464056025.post-73029449731962334532014-03-27T09:23:18.502-07:002014-03-27T09:23:18.502-07:00You've covered a lot of topics here, and one r...You've covered a lot of topics here, and one resource I have found very helpful is Tim Keller' work, The Meaning of Marriage. I highly recommend it. <br /><br />I'm wondering if when you refer to "committed" couples in a sexual relationship you always mean married couples, or do you believe the Bible also allows for sex in other types of commitments?

Thank you for clarifying that! I was at a seminar yesterday where the speaker said, "The three most important things we need to consider when looking at a scripture passage are: 1. Context, 2. Context, 3. Context. And then, #4 is still Context! When we look at linguistic, historical and cultural context, verses can read very differently than if we just pull a single verse out and hold it up for examination. I am so glad you doing this series of posts!Marlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09226584889215632619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2743186955464056025.post-74651816438865070202014-02-09T07:54:28.192-08:002014-02-09T07:54:28.192-08:00Keep up the good work.
