Bible Question (short): I'm still not sure? |
Question (full): I'm not trying to be hard headed or argumentative...but I still don't get it. As far as I can tell, everything God did had signifigance. I was wondering if maybe twenty meant something in the Hebrew language. But I know there has to be a reason God chose 20. Was (I wrong to think that the Israelites married before then?) Besides, 20 isn't just used in reference to age. Any suggestions on where I might could go to study this further? |
