18:27)ġ0) Even if no one is out there, just wander around a bit and you’ll definitely find someone.-Cain (Gen. 29:15-30)ĩ) Cut 200 foreskins off of your future father-in-law’s enemies and get his daughter for a wife.-David (1 Sam. Fourteen years of toil for a wife.-Jacob (Gen. Then work another seven years for the woman you wanted to marry in the first place. Get tricked into marrying the wrong woman. 2:19-24)Ĩ) Agree to work seven years in exchange for a woman’s hand in marriage. Note: this will cost you a rib.-Adam (Gen. When the women come out to dance, grab one and carry her off to be your wife.-Benjaminites (Judges 21:19-25)ħ) Have God create a wife for you while you sleep. 2:16-21)ĥ) Purchase a piece of property, and get a woman as part of the deal.-Boaz (Ruth 4:5-10)Ħ) Go to a party and hide.

22:28-29)ģ) Find a prostitute and marry her. 21:11-13)Ģ) “Lay hold on” a virgin who is not betrothed to another man, and "know" her, but afterwards pay her father a sum of money. So here it is, 16 ways to find a wife according to the Bible:ġ) Find an attractive prisoner of war, bring her home, shave her head, trim her nails, and give her new clothes. The people invariably would tell me that their approach was "the biblical way." I eventually become leery of such claims given that the Bible does not say much about how to find a wife, or does it? Perhaps you've seen this list floating around the world-wide-web, but it's worth reviewing because it makes a very important point.
As a pastor, over the years I had my fair share of people approach me to find out if we were a "courtship" church or a "dating" church.
