captive women and mourning

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Deuteronomy+21:10-14 After she has lived in your house and mourned her father and mother for a full month, what is the implication for mourning for her parents? total loss of parents? total loss of family connection even if some family members were alive?

Re: Why Must You Be Such A Angry Young Man/Mark1:41 Jesus Angry?

i am sure i read in misquoting jesus that ehrman gave an argument why "pity" does not work. he says that the way jesus handles the guy after healing was not with "kids gloves"

Alexander/iskander , I think your jc was as racist as his dad in heaven. For gentile woman to be accepted in kingdom of Jesus, she had to accept her status as an animal and slave of Jewish racist children. Freedom to Palestine.

does jesus' family think that he is mental?

Dr Ehrman said : The word EXESTH literally means “to stand outside of oneself.” It is a phrase comparable to the English phrase “to be out of your mind.” In other words, it means “he has gone crazy.” And so 3:21-22 can be translated “Now when his family heard these things they came out in order to s...

the women are seeking safety in flight.
