1 | Is inter-racial marriage biblical? | Deut 7:3 | sustratiotes | 435 | ||
When God tells the Israelites not to marry certain people, it is always in the context of religious beliefs not ethnicity. We are all from Adam and Eve. How can it be wrong for one person to marry another person just because he or she is of different ethnic background. Did not Moses marry and Ethiopian woman? And when Aaron and Miriam grumbled against Moses, it was because of their jealosy of Moses position, not his marriage to the Ethiopian woman. | ||||||
2 | Is inter-racial marriage biblical? | Deut 7:3 | TerryM | 2349 | ||
I agree. The Bible speaks of being "unequally yoked" but that is referring to marriage between a believer and an unbeliever. I have heard people take this passage and denounced interracial marriage. God was referring to religious differences, not ethnic differences. | ||||||
