| Notable Women And Early Marriages In The Bible, True Or False? by hmohammed(op): 2:09pm On Feb 23, 2025 |
In the Bible, the age of marriage for women varied, and some notable women did get married before the age of 18. Here are a few examples: 1. Rebekah: Married Isaac at a young age, possibly around 10-12 years old (Genesis 24:15-67). 2. Rachel: Married Jacob at around 14-15 years old (Genesis 29:1-30). 3. Leah: Married Jacob at around 14-15 years old, possibly even younger than Rachel (Genesis 29:1-30). 4. Mary (Mother of Jesus): Estimated to be around 12-14 years old when she became engaged to Joseph and conceived Jesus (Luke 1:26-38). 5. Esther: Possibly around 14-15 years old when she was taken into the king's harem and eventually became queen (Esther 2:1-18). I wonder why people condemn early marriages by Muslims in the North. |

The Patriachs were not paedophiles...don't justify nonsense. |

EmperorIsaac:That is not the question, is the above true or false? |

Its a shame most Christians dont read their Bible, hence are not aware of the teachings and the content of the book. |

hmohammed:We don't deal with estimation. You don't even understand several years Hebrew woman breastfed a baby |

hmohammed:When you give birth to a girl, give her out at the age of 6, probably to a 60yr old paedophile. Your fellow pedophile minded Muslims will not crucify you. Leave Christians out of it, we will never support pedophiles. You can quote the entire Bible If you want to be a pedophile, then sharrap and be a pedophile in peace |

hmohammed:This is completely false, if not point us to the exact verse that their ages was mentioned. Don't try to justify Mohammed marrying and consummating with a 9 year old with Bible passages that tell different stories. And by the way, Christians don't worship or hold any of those people in high esteem like you do to Mohammed, tell us Jesus married an underage girl and I'll be worried. |

hmohammed:U can't even read the verses u posted urself to see it contradicts your claims.... Lol Leah is elder sister to Rachel yet u claim she younger....all u are doing copying and pasting the lies of your alfas and evil scholars, who never want you to use ur head to see Mohammed for the sexually corrupt person he is..so they look for ways to justify his sexual corrupt ways by lying about bible giving u estimated ages that isn't even in the bible becos they know u will never read just as u are not allowed to question the Quran or Hadith. If u are desperate to justify your prophet's sexual ways....go ahead...no one is dragging paedophilia with u Muslims.....if u want to marry children of 9 years old go ahead and do so....but lying about bible accounts to validate urr prophets is just too desperate and dirty ...... U Muslims are pathetic .. today u will call bible lies and insult christians..tomorrow u will go into the same bible to validate ur prophet |

hmohammed:U are the one that ddnt read what u posted... If u did u won't post it ....because it's all lies All u posted is not even in the bible.... Jacob had to work for 7 years before laban made him marry Leah becos he wanted the elder sister to marry first....and another 7 years making 14 years before marrying the younger sister Rachel..... How can he wait for 14 years to marry someone yet you claim she's 14 years old when she was married and still claimed she's older than leah.... Oga u don't even know what u are doing....u are a lazy Muslim |

hmohammed:The dumb people of the blind faith have come again with their open display of stupidity. 1. There is no where in Genesis 24 that suggests Rebekah's age not to talk of being either 10 or 12. The passage only described her as a 'damsel'. Dictionary defines damsel as a 'young unmarried woman, not a little girl Verse 58 further shows that they asked her if she was okay with the marriage proposal and she gave her consent, not like the forced marriage your Prophet engaged a 6 year old in. You saw something somewhere, you picked it and posted it without making attempts to read it yourself. Isn't that heights of stupidity? Anyways, that's how you Muslims do, always trying to manipulate the Bible. 2-3. Therw is also no where in Genesis 29 that suggests Leah and Rachel's age. Your education is beginning to sound like a waste. 4. Same with Mary mother of Jesus. You really guffed. 5 Same with Esther. You are just like your prophet the deceiver and a paedophile that he is. |

hmohammed:and you that read it, where are there ages stated in the bible? |

hmohammed:You are a Liar and it is very clear you Muslims are paedophiles. None of those verses show that. You are just lying and looking for how to cover your paedophilia. Devil |

Thankfully - and quite easily, your premise has been rebutted from the very scriptures you sought to pervert, which in any event is pretty much all that your religion does. Thanks for the responses everyone. Now, to the below. hmohammed:I could list a number of reasons to condemn early marriage - be that in Northern Nigeria or anywhere else. But just the one should suffice. Obstetric fistula - is a hole between the birth canal and the bladder or rectum, or both, caused by prolonged labour without prompt medical intervention, such as a Caesarean section. Affected women suffer chronic incontinence, which can result in stigma and social isolation. Each year some 50,000-100,000 women sustain an obstetric fistula in the act of trying to bring forth new life. It is the most devastating of all pregnancy-related disabilities and Nigeria accounts for 40% of fistula cases worldwide. Affected women suffer chronic incontinence, which can result in stigma and social isolation.One of the major causes of this is intercourse before a female is physically mature - often the case in "early marriage", more aptly categorised somewhere between statutory r4p3 and sexual assault. Feel free to look it up and read about it yourself. https://endfistula.org/news/nigeria-fight-against-fistula-points-problem-early-marriage I could tie that back to Islam and show why it is one of the most regressive idealogies and blights on humanity ever. Is there a sorrier spectacle than muslim men justifying child marriage or muslim women defending Islams treatment of women? TV |

hmohammed:None of these claims are true, though, since Scripture does not provide for any of the claims made. These are mostly tales fabricated by the religion of Christianity and its many scholars and religious fathers. ![]() 2. I see! So, this is a contest between Islam and Christianity — both religions claim connection to a story written of a people whose God only associates with them(Israelites) and no other people— both without tangible connection to Israelite Scripture, to begin with? Continue! ![]() |
| Re: Notable Women And Early Marriages In The Bible, True Or False? by Kobojunkie: 5:04pm On Feb 27, 2025 |
hmohammed:Where is the proof of this claim you made? Where is it explicitly stated that the Mary you refer to married at the age you assume? Or has it become OK to assume that if a thing is not stated, then anyone is free to reach any conclusion he/she likes? ![]() |

hmohammed:False! ![]() |

hmohammed:If you had read the book yourself, you would have realized most every single claim in your OP is, in fact, false. ![]() |

Zionmdde:If I may ask, why are you angry? I realize most Christians just get hot headed when in the middle of religious matters and that only happens when they can’t denounce a fact. Instead of getting angry or saying unnecessary things you can go back to the Bible and read, even better it has already been translated to English for you guys to understand better but lack of personal knowledge kills most of you. You all wait for your pastors to read and relate to you instead of getting knowledge yourself. I wonder how most of you passed in schools cause why on earth will the Bible say Jesus is the son of GOD and you guys would say Jesus is GOD him self, mixing everything up and getting it all complicated |

Expensive995:you Muslims believe that man is a spirit being right? Lemme ask, how come man is a body and also a spirit? Where is the spirit? Which space does it occupy in the body? Answer this then I will tell you why Jesus is the son of God and also God |
| Re: Notable Women And Early Marriages In The Bible, True Or False? by Dtruthspeaker: 6:20pm On Oct 29, 2025 |
hmohammed:Because it did not happen. |
| Re: Notable Women And Early Marriages In The Bible, True Or False? by Dtruthspeaker: 6:36pm On Oct 29, 2025 |
Expensive995:You people r hluhn attics. In your guilt of guiltism you people now try to hang it on the bible even when you do not find any place to hang it, yet you say we should not be angry. Carry your own sins. |
