Mark 12:25 is going to be the closest to what you’re wanting it to be but even that, “gamiska”, is still describing an action of taking a wife, basically it’s still wedding. It’s not a state of “being married”. And that’s your best case. So yes...

Nah I’m kidding! Of course I’ll do it. I love this stuff! I didn’t have time to go back and check all of those references (again) but I did a spot check to refresh my understanding and while the English word “marriage” gets inserted into those...

Some of these are laughably bad. Psalms 78:63 isn’t even wedding, it’s to boast. Look, I know thats going was neither quick or humane but this is pretty basic information around here. You should know this already. It’s like the second or third...

This happened during the Clinton years. Prior to that the electoral map in the US was always blue for the Republicans and red for the Democrats. Here is the 1988 electoral map from the USGS with the Rep = blue and Dem = red...

I’m sorry but I know you know this topic better than this. Your whole phrasing here is skewed. First off, you know that what you described is adultery. Also, if you’ve paid attention at all you will know that not even I claim that sex always...

For the retreat this year I am flying into northwest Arkansas. I am posting this to see if anyone would be interested in splitting the cost of a rental car with me. Or if you are driving your car to the retreat and passing through northwest...
