I had a conversation with a Man this week who was from Africa. This man's tribe allows for underage marriage to 8 year old girls. I find that morally sickening. But he asked me to prove from the scripture how it would be morally wrong and not just in our culturally biased understanding..... He said he searched the scriptures from stem to stern and he can not find any limitation on underage marriage...
How would you answer this gentlemen? What scripture would you use? How would Theonomy handle this situation? I understand the whole law of the nation understanding but his tribe legally allows this.....
Any thoughts,
