1 | Born under the law of Moses | Bible general Archive 4 | 5282jt | 218123 | ||
Jesus was a Jew. He lived according to the law, as did his apostles [ also Jews ]. The only difference being, he lived the law as God meant it to be, not just by the "added to" rules of the Pharisees etc. "New American Standard Bible (NASB) 23"Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you tithe mint and dill and cummin, and have neglected the weightier provisions of the law: justice and mercy and faithfulness; but these are the things you should have done without neglecting the others." The law ended as such, with the death of the messiah, Jesus death. THEN, the apostles were no longer a part of Jewish religion, but true Christians. Romans 10:4 |

Hello. In answer to part 1 of your question: Actually if a man and a woman deliberately had sexual relations during her menstrual impurity, they were cut off in death. (Le 18:19; 20:18) The prohibiting of sexual union during menstruation probably contributed to health, as did many of the laws, perhaps preventing, for instance, the occurrence of inflammation in the genital area, simple urethritis. The Israelites also may have been reminded of the sanctity of blood (Deut 11:23-25) (Acts 14:19, 20) by the Law’s regulations involving menstruation or blood flow. These rules were not discriminatory against women, for men were subject to uncleanness by discharges to which they were prone. (Le 15:1-17) Especially did regulations concerning menstruation show God’s consideration for womankind and a loving Christian husband, would consider how his wife felt about having relations while bleeding. The Christian husband, though he is not under the Law (Ro 6:14; Eph 2:11-16), also does well to consider his wife’s cycles and vicissitudes, dwelling with her “according to knowledge” and assigning her honor “as to a weaker vessel, the feminine one.”—1Pe 3:7. I hope this helps? As to part 2 of your question, I don't know off hand. It is curious, but probably not of great importants? |
