“Its message is the story’s two theological affirmations: (1) God’s word is truthful and authoritative; and (2) the fulfillment of his promise of land is coming to pass.”
Kenneth A. Mathews, Joshua
“Monogamous heterosexual marriage was always viewed as the divine norm from the outset of creation. Mosaic instruction shows considerable efforts to safeguard this ideal against its dissolution by clarifying what is ‘family.’ Sexuality was instrumental in defining what a household was in Israel; abrogation of sexual boundaries threatened the identity of this core social institution. Without proper limits 'family' ceased, and the consequence was the undoing of Israel as a nation, the same fate suffered by their predecessors (Lev 18:24–30).”
Kenneth A. Mathews, Genesis 1-11:26: The Christian Standard Commentary
“God's Word does not change. God's world, however, changes in every generation”
Kenneth A. Mathews, Genesis 11:27-50:26: An Exegetical and Theological Exposition of Holy Scripture
“What the two views hold in common is establishing the historical setting in the Late Bronze Age (1550–1200).”
Kenneth A. Mathews, Joshua
