Rape in the bible |
Rape In The Bible
Rape is one of the most heinous crimes imaginable. Yet few people
know that the Bible often condones and even approves of rape. How anyone
can get their moral guidance from a book that allows rape escapes me.
Perhaps they have been lied to about the Bible and carefully detoured
around all the nasty stuff in the Bible.
So grab your Bibles and follow along as I show you all the nasty rapes
that your priests and preachers don't want to tell you about. Note that
in many places in the Bible there are references to "taking a wife".
Don't be fooled into thinking that these were voluntary marriages. This
first quote clearly shows that murder and force were used to "take" these
wives.
1) Murder, rape, and pillage at Jabesh-gilead (Judges 21:10-24 NLT)
So they sent twelve thousand warriors to Jabesh-gilead with orders to
kill everyone there, including women and children. "This is what you are
to do," they said. "Completely destroy all the males and every woman who
is not a virgin." Among the residents of Jabesh-gilead they found four
hundred young virgins who had never slept with a man, and they brought
them to the camp at Shiloh in the land of Canaan.
The Israelite assembly sent a peace delegation to the little remnant
of Benjamin who were living at the rock of Rimmon. Then the men of
Benjamin returned to their homes, and the four hundred women of
Jabesh-gilead who were spared were given to them as wives. But there were
not enough women for all of them. The people felt sorry for Benjamin
because the LORD had left this gap in the tribes of Israel. So the
Israelite leaders asked, "How can we find wives for the few who remain,
since all the women of the tribe of Benjamin are dead? There must be
heirs for the survivors so that an entire tribe of Israel will not be lost
forever. But we cannot give them our own daughters in marriage because we
have sworn with a solemn oath that anyone who does this will fall under
God's curse."
Then they thought of the annual festival of the LORD held in Shiloh,
between Lebonah and Bethel, along the east side of the road that goes from
Bethel to Shechem. They told the men of Benjamin who still needed wives,
"Go and hide in the vineyards. When the women of Shiloh come out for
their dances, rush out from the vineyards, and each of you can take one of
them home to be your wife! And when their fathers and brothers come to us
in protest, we will tell them, 'Please be understanding. Let them have
your daughters, for we didn't find enough wives for them when we destroyed
Jabesh-gilead. And you are not guilty of breaking the vow since you did
not give your daughters in marriage to them.'" So the men of Benjamin did
as they were told. They kidnapped the women who took part in the
celebration and carried them off to the land of their own inheritance.
Then they rebuilt their towns and lived in them. So the assembly of
Israel departed by tribes and families, and they returned to their own homes.
Obviously these women were repeatedly raped. These sick bastards
killed and raped an entire town and then wanted more virgins, so they hid
beside the road to kidnap and rape some more. How can anyone see this as
anything but evil?
In hiding from Kingdom Hall elders......hahahahahahaha ............
