Bible Question: After reading Proverbs 18:22 is it biblical for a woman to ask a man to marry her? |
Bible Answer: Denesha As we see implied here man is the hunter gatherer. Man is to find. My question is why would a woman want a man that isn't up to asking for her hand first? Man was made to pursue to seek for a wife. There are many stories in the Bible where the man went to great lengths to find God's perfect woman for a wife. A man is commanded to love his wife but there is not similar admonishment for the wive. Why? I believe love becomes automatic in a woman that had been properly pursued and cherished enough to have a man seek to marry her. Before anyone jumps on me I said properly not stalk. EdB |
