Subject: What if the man is already married? |
Bible Note: But if he is already married how does that work? He cannot be married to 2 women right? I had read that in Leviticus also, and of course as we know with the crucufiction we no longer have to be put to death for our sins, but would he still be responsible for the marriage and well being of the virgin? Or like the woman at that well, "go and sin no more", once he has truly asked for forgivness? I guess the question is, is he obligated to the virgin now and not his wife or both? |
