Those constellations are reflections of society in the Middle East as it was then, when women were men’s possessions. Marriage is an evolving institution; a social construct that has been changing for the better since biblical times…
This narrative of moral progress is fallacious, what makes the current way that marriage is conceived to be “better” if it will only change as time goes on? What if people like you in 100 years will actually consider your conception of marriage to be wrong?
The point is that what the Bible ” The Word of God” according to Christians, so it doesn’t evolve, it stays that way unless God says other wise. Your example of SECULAR marriage evolving is man made not supported by the “Word Of God” in the bible. Thats the point, get it?

Paul Williams claims to know so much about modern Biblical scholarship yet reads absolutely none of it concerning any of these passages. Irony.
