Subject: Reason 4 "6" Cities of Refuge? |
Bible Note: You are on the right track. It can be a lot of fun discovering the life and times of Jesus and the Apostles. I agree with you that young men pursued marriage and a young age, but probably not as young as the women. I disagree with the History and Discovery Channel depicting the 30 something men marrying 13 year olds. There is more evidence that in Jesus world men married closer to 20 and girls a bit younger. Girls also had a say to some extent. It would be an exception for a girl to marry a man she did not agree with. While that may not be true for all places and times in the Jewish world, it most likely was in the first century Galilee. Anyway, enjoy learning and reading. It's a long journey with many "flowers" to smell along the way. MJH |
