However, if we view marriage as an eternal bond between husband and wife our attitude will be very different than if we view marriage as a temporary relationship.

The Archaeology of Ancient Israelite Knowledge reconstructs in carefully researched detail the worldview of the ancient Israelites writers responsible for the Hebrew Bible. What was the role of God in their lives? How did they see the relationship between God, nature, and themselves?

God no longer interconnected everything—humans, nature—but became seen as sharply separated from nature.
