Jonathan didn’t strip off his robe for romance. In Scripture, a royal robe symbolized authority and succession. By giving David his robe, armor, and weapons, Jonathan acknowledged God’s chosen king. Nothing sexual—just loyalty and submission.
David and Jonathan’s souls were “knit together”—but what does that actually mean in the Bible? Scripture uses the same language to describe deep family bonds, not marriage or sex. The Bible carefully distinguishes between kinship and “one flesh” union. Understanding this helps us read David and Jonathan rightly.
David and Jonathan shared a deep bond that is often misunderstood today. In a hypersexualized culture, strong affection is quickly assumed to be sexual—but the Bible describes different kinds of love. Scripture honors deep, non-sexual devotion, including friendship, family, and covenant loyalty. Understanding this distinction is essential when reading the story of David and Jonathan.
When we try to reinterpret this verse to make it more palatable for modern culture, we inadvertently create a much bigger problem. By claiming this law is about p3d0ph1l1a, we aren't "saving" the Bible; we are accusing God of commanding the execution of abused children.
It is better to wrestle with a God who disagrees with modern sexual ethics than to invent a God who punishes victims. True justice protects the weak; it doesn't sentence them to death alongside their abusers.
It has as much authority as if Jesus had said it himself.
The doctrine of inspiration is core to Christianity. Yet not all who claim to be Christian have a high view of Scripture. Denying the authority of God's Word is equivalent to denying God.
Most debates about marriage today overlook the fact that Jesus addressed sexual ethics.
His words aren’t just rules, they reveal a timeless framework for relationships. When we look at what He actually said, it becomes clear why the man-and-woman design of marriage is more than cultural preference, it’s intentional. Understanding this can change the way we think about love, commitment, and purpose.
It’s the #1 tool used to make any quote, verse, or statement mean whatever someone wants it to mean, rather than what it actually means.
This one principle is the difference between honest interpretation and intellectual manipulation.

Context is the guardrail that keeps us on the road of truth. It is not enough to just cite "history." You have to cite the right history.

People often try to separate Jesus from the "hard" parts of the Bible. ✂️
But when Jesus was directly questioned about marriage, He didn't offer a new, modern take. He pointed straight back to the original design in Genesis.
Jesus not only defended marriage, but he also defined it.

This is the ultimate logical trap.
If you're going to argue that silence equals approval, you have to apply that rule to everything Jesus didn't mention... and that gets dark very fast.
It's a "fallacy" for a reason: it's a broken argument that proves nothing except the speaker's own bias.

A text without its context is just a pretext.
It’s the #1 tool used to make any quote, verse, or statement mean whatever someone wants it to mean, rather than what it actually means.
This one principle is the difference between honest interpretation and intellectual manipulation.
