REBECCA THE BIBLICAL CHILD BRIDE!!
So the sun stood still, and the moon stopped, till the nation avenged itself on its enemies, as it is written in the BOOK OF JASHAR. The sun stopped in the middle of the sky and delayed going down about a full day.
(Joshua 10:13)
----------------
We find a very interesting passage in the Old Testament Where During the time of Joshua Yahweh stops the Sun and moon in order for the enemies of Joshua to be defeated, however the passages tells the readers that this event is so true that you can verify it yourself by finding this particular information in the BOOK OF JASHAR? Now the Book Of JASHAR is not part of the canon, yet we can see it still holds credibility since its mentioned in the book of Joshua as a source of evidence...... The question is if we can verify the sun and moon stopping what else can we verify???
Well believe it or not this same book the BOOK OF JASHAR, tells is something even more fascinating and that is the AGE OF REBECCA WHEN SHE GOT MARRIED TO ISAAC? Let's varify this Info like the sun and moon..
-----------------
(THE BOOK OF JASHAR 24:37-45)
What we read from Jasher 24:37-45 is that, Isaac was 40 years old when he consummated his marriage with 10 year old Rebekah. The BIG QUESTION is, if the book Joshua tells us to verify its contents then this book could be considered as another source of info, thus Rebecca was 10 when she married Isaac. (That's clearly stated in verse 40)
Which raises the other BIG QUESTION, according to Genesis 25, a renowned Bible commentator Rashi states Rebecca was 3 years old when she married Isaac and this is also backed by the Jewish oral law (jurisprudence) Talmud Sanhedrin 55b where a Jew can Marry a Three Year Old Girl!
The dilemma Christians face is that either one is correct or both Are wrong? which means THE "BOOK OF JASHAR" holds no credibility and Joshua made up a lie just to entertain its readers? Unless he spoke the truth in which case only confirms Rebecca was 10 years old. How about Rashi the great renowned commentator Jews use for explaining the Old Testament, are Christians willing to throw away such a credible mans work?
TAKE YOUR PICK!! 10 years old or 3 years old?
