An engineer's view of men and women.
The Lord said to Moses, "Say to the Israelites: 'A woman who becomes pregnant and gives birth to a son will be ceremonially unclean for seven days.... If she gives birth to a daughter, for two weeks the woman will be unclean.... [Lev. 12:1-5, Emphasis mine]
Why? Why the difference? Would the cultural view of women been so insurmountable for God? Could He not have put men and women on better footing and as equals by just treating them the same? I wonder. I wonder.
But some day we'll know. But somehow in that day, I suspect, the answer to my question won't matter at all. For what can compare to an eternity with Him?
Post from last year on this date.
