Interestingly, Jacob blessed his son Joseph's two children in untraditional order, also - Genesis 48 Yes- good one! You are right, Isaac is in Genesis 27, and as you mentioned, Jacob blessed each of Joseph's sons, thereby giving Joseph a double portion. After that there is no tribe of Joseph in Israel, but instead an Ephraim and Manasseh. You're sharp, carolaa!!

carolaa Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Lamech was the first polygamist- Genesis 4:19 Yes, and it might be good to point out that this is not the same Lamech who was Methusaleh's son and father of Noah. This was a descendant of Cain. Which, to me, is a great argument that polygamy was never intended by God. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Gail Posted November 3, 2008 Author Administrators Share Posted November 3, 2008 Seems to be a lot of that in ancient times. If an Israelite man gave an Israelite woman a bad name, he was fined 100 shekels of silver, and the money went to the girl's father- Deut.22:19 Quote Isaiah 32:17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.
