The teaching of Brother Eli on remarriage, this gives us clarity and comfort, is a way of widening every point in Scripture.
In Deuteronomy 7:2-3, this is my teaching, both assuring and spiritualizing. What touched me the most was how he didn't just quote the Bible, but explained God's compassion towards human weakness and emotional needs.
When we read Samuel 3:18, we have to be reminded that God has assigned our fatality, our loneliness and desire for having a companion, especially after losing our most precious ones. Keep learning from someone to talk to. Make the message even more relatable. It wasn't just the doctrine, but it was, and empathy.
Understanding that God does not condemn a widow for seeking that companionship after her husband's death brings peace, especially to family, that we are not sure whether such a decision is acceptable before God.
This teaching reminds us that the Bible is not just the Old Testament. It's not just the Book of Hebrews, but also the revelation of the mercy of God and understanding. Truly, but as it delivers the word in a way that keeps piercing our hearts and gives us enlightenment.
This explanation helps many see that the marriage by a widow is both biblically permitted and understandable.
