Deuteronomy 21:20 And they shall say to them: ‘This our son is reckless and disobedient. He shows contempt when listening to our admonitions. He occupies himself with carousing, and self-indulgence, and feasting.’
this verse is focused more on the sin of gluttony
Fulfilled means that those precepts were written in preparation of Christ, and Christ has come, and suffered on the Cross and rose again.
Exodus 21, again, has been fulfilled.
Can I have the slaves and rape verses?
Mark 10:5 But Jesus responded by saying: “It was due to the hardness of your heart that he wrote that precept for you.
That verse advocates for stoning a child to death. Stop ignoring the point.
God needed slave rape to prepare for christ?
Hey fuckass, stop ignoring my points. Address this:
You can find slave rape multiple times throughout the bible. Abram and his wife's slave in Genesis. Moses's army taking the virgins for themselves in Numbers. David's wives being raped in 2 Samuel.
Do some reading for yourself. Stop cherry picking and stop ignoring how blatantly abusive your god is.
Fortunately for us, he is not real. Unfortunately for us, you are real, and other real people are DYING for the bullshit you refuse to stop spouting.
Be more honest. There is no reason to believe this deadly nonsense. Stop being selfish. No one is going to hell, no one is going to heaven, focus on real life.
Deuteronomy 22:25 But if a man discovers, in the countryside, a girl who has been betrothed, and, apprehending her, he lies with her, then he alone shall die.
Deuteronomy 22:26 The girl shall suffer nothing, nor is she guilty unto death. For just as a robber rises up against his brother and slays his life, so also did the girl suffer greatly.
The Bible does not condone rape, it speaks out against it.
And the word is "Son", not "child". I don't think a 10 year old occupies himself with carousing and feasting
Wrong.
What happened when Sarah's slave ran away after being raped? God sent an angel to tell her to go back and have the child for her rapists.
Why did god explicitly command Moses and his army to take child sex slaves?
Why would god have David's wives raped if he did not condone it?
Even Mary was raped. The angel did not ask her consent, he told her she was going to give birth.
Fuck you for defending rape, stupid death cultist.
People are dying because you're a hopeless, selfish idiot.
