Rape. Hello chubby. You also mentioned rape. There are several horrific rapes in the Bible -- and it is also used as a metaphorical image by the prophets Jeremiah and Ezekiel... But in terms of historical narrative, the one that sticks out in my mind is Amnon raping Tamar, his half sister. What is amazing about this passage is how it shows lust grow within him -- it goes from fantasy, to obsession, to plotting, to actual rape. It reveals human lust very clearly. The text even includes Tamar pleading with him, to change his mind. See the 13th chapter of 2 Samuel. Also, the book of Susanna is a good one to look at. Not everyone recognizes this book as part of the Biblical cannon, but I think everyone believes it is edifying to read. |
