This is Spiritualist D'Light.

Let's Leave Sentiments, Hypocrisy,Emotions etc ..Christians are People who Followed Jesus Christ ,The Holy Bible is the Standard and Source of Informations for Living .

Bible Scholars that Says the Bitter Truth ..Not Truth Twisters .Can you Please Show or Point to me where in the Bible , Almighty God Commanded Man to Pay Bride Price before he Marries a Woman .

I'm not Talking about Cultures and Tradition here ,No matter How long Tradition and
Culture is ..Is not a Basis for this .

Let's Share So We can Learn

In Many cultures, marriage is not valid without a bride price. But it is not so in the Bible. There is no Bible passage where you will find payment of bride price as a direct commandment from God. Payment of bride price serves only as a penalty for rape in the Bible, not a condition for marriage (see Exodus 22:16-17; Deuteronomy 22:28-29).

Bride price is often demanded by parents who wants to be sure that the groom is capable of taking good care of their daughter at times a father or mother may decide not to as of such from the man if he has proven over the years to be reliable.
As for bride price in the Bible something seems strange in the way God took a part of Adam's body before giving him a wife {Genesis 2:21-22} and among Israelites any man marrying must pay the bride price it's the custom they met their great grandfather doing! Genesis 24:53
That's why Israelites can't boycott the bride price as it was instituted by the patriarch himself: Abraham!
So the law you referred to simply means bride price should also be taken from a rapist if the parents are willing to let their daughter marry him after all he has disvirgined her!

bride price (or dowry) is an East European/African/Asian/Middle eastern culture that has absolutely NOTHING to do with religion.

You don't Change God's Creative Powers and Decision to Bride Price Paying .Na waooo.

God Has the Powers to use any Method to Make his Creations ,It's Possible for him to mould the same Image and Breaths His Life into the Image to Create Eve .

The Ribs he removed from Adam to Create Eve is never a Price .

How would You say it's a Price ?

Does the Bible Says it's a Bride Price .

Why would anyone use his Idea and Feelings turn the Intentions of God's Creative Powers into Some Meaning .

Abeg Una Stop all these Joor.


Does the Rib Bones of Adam Reduced after God Removed it ?

A Price Reduces from where it's taken from .

God Message from removing the two Ribs in my own Unbiblical Opinion means the Woman should always remember that She is not Complete without the Man .Man is her Completeness .

I come in Peace.
