Last time you said “Time for a Bible lesson” the first thing you did was post the wrong Chp.Posting them is ONE thing.
Misrepresenting them is what YOU do.
This is ALL based on your abject ignorance of the text of Scripture.
Time for a Bible Lesson . . .
Coveting a man’s wife and a man’s property are TWO separate issues.
The first thing YOU need to know is that there are TWO versions of the listing of the Commandments in the Old Testament. To put them in their proper context, we need to examine BOTH listings.
In Deuteronomy 5, we see another version of the list. Here, we see a clear distinction between a man’s wife and his property. A different word for the desire of a man’s property is used than that of the desire for his wife.
Chamad (תחמד), is used to describe the coveting a man’s wife as opposed to 'Avah (תתאוה), which is used to describe the desire for a man’s property. Chamad has a connotation of sexual desire and lust, whereas, ‘Avah means to crave or to be greedy for something material.
There are two different Commandments here and NOT one jumbled, all-inclusive commandment. In Gen. 2:24, God declared that, in the union between a husband and wife, the two become ONE flesh. Jesus reiterates this fact in Mark 10:8.
There ends the lesson for the day . . .
Soooo, what’s the excuse for your Protestant ministers??
They’re mostly married – and yet sexual misconduct and the molestation of children happens MORE among the Protestant sects than in the Catholic Church.
This fact is WELL-documented in the book, Pedophiles and Priests by Protestant author, Philip Jenkins. He lists the official statistics from Police, FBI and Insurance cases.
Here is a partial example of the headlines . . .
