1 | Who could the Israelites marry? | Ruth 1:4 | Diomede | 160082 | ||
Was marriage between an Israelite man and Moabite woman allowed? I had thought, from reading Ezra, that marrying foreigners was prohibited, but I've been told that these Moabite marriages were okay. Can someone explain to me who the Isrealites were allowed to marry and why. Thanks |

Did the exclusion from the assembly of the Lord for ten generations start with Balaam or did it start whenever an intermarriage occured? Nehemiah 13 recounts an interpretation that takes the exclusion to last forever. David and Solomon shouldn't have been allowed in the assembly if it still applied in their time. Was the only problem with foreign wives their foreign gods which Ruth either never followed or she abandoned? |
