Alright, so I know the bible clearly speaks out agianst incest.
LEV 18:6 "'No one is to approach any close relative to have sexual
relations. I am the LORD.
7 "'Do not dishonor your father by having sexual relations with your
mother. She is your mother; do not have relations with her.
8 "'Do not have sexual relations with your father's wife; that would
dishonor your father.
9 "'Do not have sexual relations with your sister, either your father's
daughter or your mother's daughter, whether she was born in the same home
or elsewhere.
10 "'Do not have sexual relations with your son's daughter or your
daughter's daughter; that would dishonor you.
11 "'Do not have sexual relations with the daughter of your father's wife,
born to your father; she is your sister.
12 "'Do not have sexual relations with your father's sister; she is your
father's close relative.
13 "'Do not have sexual relations with your mother's sister, because she
is your mother's close relative.
14 "'Do not dishonor your father's brother by approaching his wife to have
sexual relations; she is your aunt.
15 "'Do not have sexual relations with your daughter-in-law. She is your
son's wife; do not have relations with her.
16 "'Do not have sexual relations with your brother's wife; that would
dishonor your brother.
17 "'Do not have sexual relations with both a woman and her daughter. Do
not have sexual relations with either her son's daughter or her daughter's
daughter; they are her close relatives. That is wickedness.
18 "'Do not take your wife's sister as a rival wife and have sexual
relations with her while your wife is living.
20:11 "'If a man sleeps with his father's wife, he has dishonored his
father. Both the man and the woman must be put to death; their blood will
be on their own heads.
12 "'If a man sleeps with his daughter-in-law, both of them must be put to
death. What they have done is a perversion; their blood will be on their
own heads.
17 "'If a man marries his sister, the daughter of either his father or his
mother, and they have sexual relations, it is a disgrace. They must be cut
off before the eyes of their people. He has dishonored his sister and will
be held responsible.
19 "'Do not have sexual relations with the sister of either your mother or
your father, for that would dishonor a close relative; both of you would be
held responsible.
20 "'If a man sleeps with his aunt, he has dishonored his uncle. They will
be held responsible; they will die childless.
21 "'If a man marries his brother's wife, it is an act of impurity; he has
dishonored his brother. They will be childless.
DEU 22:30 A man is not to marry his father's wife; he must not dishonor
his father's bed.
27:10 Obey the LORD your God and follow his commands and decrees that I
give you today."
22 "Cursed is the man who sleeps with his sister, the daughter of his
father or the daughter of his mother." Then all the people shall say,
"Amen!"
23 "Cursed is the man who sleeps with his mother-in-law." Then all the
people shall say, "Amen!"
EZE 22:11 In you one man commits a detestable offense with his neighbor's
wife, another shamefully defiles his daughter-in-law, and another violates
his sister, his own father's daughter.
1CO 5:1 It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you,
and of a kind that does not occur even among pagans: A man has his father's
wife.
So it is quite clear that God is against incest. But did he not allow it to happen? Was Cain's wife not his own sister? Since Adam and Eve were the first humans. Does that not make Cains wife his siter?
And Cain went out from the face of the Lord, and dwelt as a fugitive on the earth, at the east side of Eden. And Cain knew his wife, and she conceived, and brought forth Henoch: and he built a city, and called the name thereof by the name of his son Henoch. [Genesis 4:16-17]
I'm just wondering aboiut people's thoughts on this, with biblical evidence to prove it. Thanks. God Bless.
