Bible Question: Is it alright to marry someone from a different race? The Old Testament contained some restrictions on whom the Israelites could marry. (Deut. 7:3-4) (Lev. 21:13-14). There were even some strict regulations about inter-tribal marriage(Num. 36:3-9) |
Bible Answer: In Deut 7:3, God's telling them not to intermarry or mingle with them so that they are not tempted to follow their ways. It's not a racial thing. The Bible is all about Love. As long as two people love God and love each other then how could it be wrong? |
