Then God said to the woman,
"I will cause you to have much trouble
when you are pregnant,
and when you give birth to children,
you will have great pain.
You will greatly desire your husband,
but he will rule over you."
So Eve and all woman are punished and are to be rules over by there husbands or fathers for Eve eating the fruit of the tree of knowledge.
Look! I have two daughters who have never slept with a man. I will give them to you, and you may do anything you want with them. But please don't do anything to these men. They have come to my house, and I must protect them."
The "righteous" Lot would rather give his daughters to a crowd of rapists than his house guests.
32 Let's get our father drunk and have sexual relations with him. We can use him to have children and continue our family."
33 That night the two girls got their father drunk, and the older daughter went and had sexual relations with him. But Lot did not know when she lay down or when she got up.
34 The next day the older daughter said to the younger, "Last night I had sexual relations with my father. Let's get him drunk again tonight so you can go and have sexual relations with him, too. In this way we can use our father to have children to continue our family."35 So that night they got their father drunk again, and the younger daughter went and had sexual relations with him. Again, Lot did not know when she lay down or when she got up.
36 So both of Lot's daughters became pregnant by their father.
Lots daughters get him drunk and have sex with him. First of all, no normal father would have sex with his daughters no matter how drink we was and its far more likely that he got drunk an then raped his doughtier the later blamed his daughters or that he deceived them into thinking that they where that last humans alive and thus they had to have sex with him to keep the species going. Its far more likely that he was one pervert fuck who wanted to have sex with his daughters.
"You must not want to take your neighbor's house. You must not want his wife or his male or female slaves, or his ox or his donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor."
Notice how the bible puts wives in the same category as slaves and property.
19 " 'When a woman has her monthly period, she is unclean for seven days; anyone who touches her will be unclean until evening.20 Anything she lies on during this time will be unclean, and everything she sits on during this time will be unclean.21 Anyone who touches her bed must wash his clothes and bathe in water; that person will be unclean until evening.22 Anyone who touches something she has sat on must wash his clothes and bathe in water; that person will be unclean until evening.23 It does not matter if the person touched the woman's bed or something she sat on; he will be unclean until evening.
24 " 'If a man has sexual relations with a woman and her monthly period touches him, he will be unclean for seven days; every bed he lies on will be unclean.
25 " 'If a woman has a loss of blood for many days and it is not during her regular monthly period, or if she continues to have a loss of blood after her regular period, she will be unclean, as she is during her monthly period. She will be unclean for as long as she continues to bleed.26 Any bed she lies on during all the time of her bleeding will be like her bed during her regular monthly period. Everything she sits on will be unclean, as during her regular monthly period.
27 " 'Whoever touches those things will be unclean and must wash his clothes and bathe in water; he will be unclean until evening.28 When the woman becomes clean from her bleeding, she must wait seven days, and after this she will be clean.29 Then on the eighth day she must take two doves or two young pigeons and bring them to the priest at the entrance of the Meeting Tent.30 The priest must offer one bird for a sin offering and the other for a whole burnt offering. In this way the priest will make her clean so she can belong to the Lord again.
So when a woman is menstruating she is "unclean" and anything that she touched or touches her is "unclean" and to become clean show has to wait 7 days than she must go to a priest and he then must kill a bird.
19 " 'You must not go near a woman to have sexual relations with her during her monthly period, when she is unclean.
20 " 'You must not have sexual relations with your neighbor's wife and make yourself unclean with her.
More fear of ministration.
Notice how it says "neighbor's wife"?
If a man has sexual relations with a woman during her monthly period, both the woman and the man must be cut off from their people. They sinned because they showed the source of her blood.
If a man and a woman have sex during her period, they are to be banished.
If a priest's daughter makes herself unclean by becoming a prostitute, she shames her father. She must be burned with fire.
Need I say anything?
15 He asked them, "Why did you let the women live?16 They were the ones who followed Balaam's advice and turned the Israelites from the Lord at Peor. Then a terrible sickness struck the Lord's people.17 Kill all the Midianite boys, and kill all the Midianite women who have had sexual relations.18 But save for yourselves the girls who have not had sexual relations with a man.
19 "All you men who killed anyone or touched a dead body must stay outside the camp for seven days. On the third and seventh days you and your captives must make yourselves clean.
"Kill all the men woman and children exsept for the vergin woman as slaves"
13 The Lord your God will give it to you. Then kill all the men with your swords,14 and you may take everything else in the city for yourselves. Take the women, children, and animals, and you may use these things the Lord your God gives you from your enemies.
11 If you see a beautiful woman among the captives and are attracted to her, you may take her as your wife.12 Bring her into your home, where she must shave her head and cut her nails13 and change the clothes she was wearing when you captured her. After she has lived in your house and cried for her parents for a month, you may marry her. You will be her husband, and she will be your wife.
13 If a man marries a girl and has sexual relations with her but then decides he does not like her,14 he might talk badly about her and give her a bad name. He might say, "I married this woman, but when I had sexual relations with her, I did not find that she was a virgin." 15 Then the girl's parents must bring proof that she was a virgin to the elders at the city gate. 16 The girl's father will say to the elders, "I gave my daughter to this man to be his wife, but now he does not want her. 17 This man has told lies about my daughter. He has said, 'I did not find your daughter to be a virgin,' but here is the proof that my daughter was a virgin." Then her parents are to show the sheet to the elders of the city, 18 and the elders must take the man and punish him. 19 They must make him pay about two and one-half pounds of silver to the girl's father, because the man has given an Israelite virgin a bad name. The girl will continue to be the man's wife, and he may not divorce her as long as he lives.
20 But if the things the husband said about his wife are true, and there is no proof that she was a virgin,21 the girl must be brought to the door of her father's house. Then the men of the town must put her to death by throwing stones at her. She has done a disgraceful thing in Israel by having sexual relations before she was married. You must get rid of the evil among you.
You notis it never says a man must be virgin when he gets married but a woman has to be and if she isn't, she must be murderd on the dore step of her father.
23 If a man meets a virgin in a city and has sexual relations with her, but she is engaged to another man,24 you must take both of them to the city gate and put them to death by throwing stones at them. Kill the girl, because she was in a city and did not scream for help. And kill the man for having sexual relations with another man's wife. You must get rid of the evil among you.
So if a woman is being raped and she dose not scream, then it was consensual? What the hell?
If a woman cheats on her husband, she and the mans she cheated with must be murdered but you notice it doesn't say a man who cheats on his wife has to be punished.
28 If a man meets a virgin who is not engaged to be married and forces her to have sexual relations with him and people find out about it,29 the man must pay the girl's father about one and one-fourth pounds of silver. He must also marry the girl, because he has dishonored her, and he may never divorce her for as long as he lives.
So if a woman is raped and not engaged, than she must marry her rapist and stay married forever?
24 Look, here are my daughter, who has never had sexual relations before, and the man's slave woman. I will bring them out to you now. Do anything you want with them, but don't do such a terrible thing to this man."
25 But the men would not listen to him. So the Levite took his slave woman and sent her outside to them. They forced her to have sexual relations with them, and they abused her all night long. Then, at dawn, they let her go.
Thats just plain evil and wrong.
But I want you to understand this: The head of every man is Christ, the head of a woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God.
Need I say anything or is the passage clear?
34 women should keep quiet in the church meetings. They are not allowed to speak, but they must yield to this rule as the law says.35 If they want to learn something, they should ask their own husbands at home. It is shameful for a woman to speak in the church meeting.
"Shut up bitch!"
Wives, yield to your husbands, as you do to the Lord, 23 because the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ is the head of the church. And he is the Savior of the body, which is the church.24 As the church yields to Christ, so you wives should yield to your husbands in everything.
Need I say anything, or is the inequality screaming it?
Wives, yield to the authority of your husbands, because this is the right thing to do in the Lord.
I'm going to stop commenting cause if you don't get it, there something wrong with you.
11 Let a woman learn by listening quietly and being ready to cooperate in everything.12 But I do not allow a woman to teach or to have authority over a man, but to listen quietly,13 because Adam was formed first and then Eve.14 And Adam was not tricked, but the woman was tricked and became a sinner. 15 But she will be saved through having children if she continues in faith, love, and holiness, with self-control.
4 Then they can teach the young women to love their husbands, to love their children,5 to be wise and pure, to be good workers at home, to be kind, and to yield to their husbands. Then no one will be able to criticize the teaching God gave us.
In the same way, you wives should yield to your husbands. Then, if some husbands do not obey God's teaching, they will be persuaded to believe without anyone's saying a word to them. They will be persuaded by the way their wives live.
A list of polygamy in the bible.
Genesis 4:19, Genesis 16:1-4, Genesis 25:6, Genesis 26:34, Genesis 31:17, Exodus 21:10, Deuteronomy 21:15, Judges 8:30, 1 Samuel 1:1-2, 2 Samuel 12:7-8, 1 Kings 11:2-3, 1 Chronicles 4:5, 2 Chronicles 11:21, 2 Chronicles 13:21, 2 Chronicles 24:3.
So you see, the bible is a sexist document where woman are considered property, slaves.
What a spiritually uplifting book it is. Thank goodness we have it or else where on Earth would we get our morality.
Oops, expressed an opinion, better stone me
I like the points you made. I’ve been wondering all these myself during my Bible Lit. class. These points really got me thinking.
