Sources matter. ## 📖 Main Content - The Hebrew Bible treats adultery as property damage to men. See [H1], [H2]. - Men face fewer limits when women are unbetrothed or enslaved. See [H1]. - The New Testament reframes desire and conduct under ascetic ideals. See [H3]. - Hosea uses a marital metaphor for Israel’s covenant breach. See [H4], [H6]. - Translation choices shape meaning in Hosea’s charged passages. See [H5]. - Prophetic “restoration” is promised repeatedly yet deferred. See [H8]. - Rape apologetics using 1 Cor 7 is rejected. Consent is required. See [H7]. - Terms defined: “Baal” as title vs. foreign god; “Ephraim” as Israel. - Uncertainties remain on Hosea’s composition layers and dating. ### 🗒️ Notes #### ⏱️ [00:08:10](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8nkm6_nzl8k&t=490) Adultery as property violation ### [H1] Hebrew Bible adultery protects male ownership > [!quote] [The Adult(ery) Episode](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8nkm6_nzl8k) by an unnamed author via [[Data Over Dogma]].
