“The closer we draw to God, the less we ask what is permissible (“What can I get away with and still be a Christian?”) and the more we think about what pleases God.”
Bill T. Arnold, Encountering the Old Testament (Encountering Biblical Studies): A Christian Survey

“Just as sin and death entered the world by one man, so salvation and life came into the world through one righteous man, Jesus Christ.”
Bill T. Arnold, Encountering the Book of Genesis

“[I]t was the obligation of the closest brother of a deceased member of the family to produce a son for the dead brother. This second marriage is known as “levirate” marriage. The term comes from the Latin levir, which translates the Hebrew word for “brother-in-law” (yābām). The purpose of marrying a widow in the family was to guarantee the childless woman would have children who would receive the deceased family member’s inheritance. The children would also care for the woman in her elderly years.”
Bill T. Arnold, Encountering the Book of Genesis
