Bible Question: Greeting all, my question is what does the word of God say about a woman taking her husband last name. So women use their fathers last name and attach the husbands last name with a dash. Is this within the will of the father. |
Bible Answer: I don't know of a verse that says anything about taking the last name. I think that is based more on custom. The only verse that comes to mind is Gen 2:24 Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh. you might be able to make a stretch that keeping the name is not leaving her parents. I think that would be a long stretch and I don't think it would be Biblically correct. |
