1	Deut 22:29, Rapist to marry victim?	Deut 22:28	BradK	231795
	Hello tomay777, Welcome to the Forum. I'm curious as to the basis behind your statement, "Remember when you uncover something like this which seems like a contradiction, rejoice for there is a hidden meaning behind it."? A few questions then follow: What method of interpretation are you subscribing to? Do you believe in Sola Scriptura? Don't "seeming" contradictions fall under the analogy of faith? That is, we compare the more clear passages of scripture from which to derive our meaning and understanding of those less clear? Here the Westmister Confession reads, "The infallible rule of interpretation of Scripture is the Scripture itself: and therefore, when there is a question about the true and full sense of any Scripture (which is not manifold, but one), it must be searched and known by other places that speak more clearly.(2 Pet. 1:20,21; Acts 15:15,16)" What about the Perspicuity of scripture-by that I mean scripture is clear enough for the average person to read and understand it? The Westminster Confession tells us, "All things in Scripture are not alike plain in themselves, nor alike clear unto all;(1) yet those things which are necessary to be known, believed, and observed for salvation, are so clearly propounded, and opened in some place of Scripture or other, that not only the learned, but the unlearned, in a due use of the ordinary means, may attain unto a sufficient understanding of them.(2 Pet. 3:16; Psalm 119:105,130)" Just some thoughts on your reply:-) Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK
