Roger, The association and/or inference that I draw here is virtually identical to your question, albeit on a much grander scale. Indeed, women were treated as the property of men, in the times of ancient Israel, much like land property. Such traditions may even have extended to women in the early New Testament Church. So here is the grander question, within the context of this verse (Ruth 4:5): Does (or should) the culturally biblical treatment of women extend into our modern day and age? Were ancient Israel and the early Church inherently inspired by God to treat women as they did (buying and selling women as property, etc.)? And if so, then to what degree? Or if not, then to what degree do we today still enforce the old ways in smaller degrees? RS |

Perhaps you could get a copy of the latest Book by that great Prophet-ess, "Dr. Laura!" It is called, "The Care and Feeding of Husbands!" It is about time, that God raised up Balims Donkey to forbid the Madness of Modern Women, even in the Church! The Pendulem has swung Too Far to the opposite of the way Ancient Women were treated! It needs to be Balanced again, and especially with 2Peter 3:4-5-6. Thank you! | ||||||
