From this sermon, one get’s the impression it’s Biblical to pawn your daughter off as spoils of war since, according to Judges 1:13 Caleb offered his daughter to the first man to take a certain hill, but immoral to let single daughters having reached the age of majority live on their own.
Many sermons lament the number of broken marriages occurring within the church. Maybe if more pastors preached actual doctrine rather than invoking obbsure historical references to justify their own theological peculiarities such as the impropriety of otherwise chaste dating and condemnation upon the single for not having gotten married, maybe there would be fewer divorces within the kingdom of God since believers would then be making decisions reflective of the Lord's will for their own lives rather than being pressured into situations because the preacher did not know when to keep his mouth shut.
