You are so so wrong dear,

In the case of Hosea and Gormer,it was a specific symbolic story of redemption of Isreal by GOD and Gomer was never unfaithful in the very beginning but GOD knew she will be but only wants to use her to pas a message of his undying love for Israel.

Hosea was commanded to marry a woman whom God told him would not be faithful and even when this came to pass,Hosea had to buy her back with a bride price that is half of what GOD commanded which was 15sheckels of silver instead of 50 or 30.

And please go back again and read the story of David and Bathsheba. This was purely an illicit affair that GOD was never pleased with.
My post is not about the symbolism of Hosea and Gomer's marriage or whether God was pleased with David.

The point of my post was that a full bride price was paid on Gomer's head when she was first married to Hosea. He paid half-price to get her back after her unfaithfulness but that does not nullify the full price he initially paid.

David paid bride price on Bathsheba. Even God could not command him to do otherwise regardless of the circumstances that surrounded their union.

Adaeze point still stands.

Go and read again..Gomir was not a harlot the first time Hosea paid her bride price but the second time was a redemptive bride price which God asked him to do as a symbolic representtion of his love for isreal despite that they went astray.

As per david case i still maintain my earlier stand that this case should not even be mentioned in this context.

Happy sunday

Walahi i tire for all the wailers here taking an intelligent write up out of context.

Even the Op never wrote that we should stop paying bride price but just laid some facts straight.

I asked a simple question my dear. A yes or no answer is all that should suffix

Adaeze003:
Those laws are for jews you know?

We have our own traditions that have existed even before Christianity came to play. What Christianity did was to get rid of those traditions that were harmful to people. It doesn't abolish our traditions that's why before you're married in church, the priest makes sure you've carried out all rites.

I'm not a fan of bride price myself but all the passages you quoted are sort of irrelevant in the matter.

If you live by those laws you must abide by them all.

Hosea1:2. Shows clearly that the Lord commanded Hosea to take a LovePeddler as a wife. She was a prostitute from the start.

Again my post is not about the symbolic representation. That's not my concern. Its that she was taken as a wife with bride price paid on her head knowing full well she was not a virgin; she was a prostitute.

Bathsheba case is relevant here. Again my point is not about the religious symbolism or implication of the adultery. That's not important to this post. David took another man's wife who was obviously not a virgin. Paid bride price on her head and made her his wife.

Thank you.
