I’ve been asked an interesting question by the Vice Provost, the Rev Cedric Blakey this week.
The question is this – or at least something like this:
If one were in conversation with a couple considering marriage, which married couples from the bible would you cite as good examples of marriage based on the biblical evidence.
Let us make this easy and restrict things to couples in the bible who could be said to be married in the form that so many people want to tell me is the biblical model for marriage – ie one man and one woman, no sex outside marriage.
I’d be interested to hear your suggestions. Which biblical couples affirm this model?
