i whiled away the time today in the wt researching the above question on line.
it seems to me that there is more evidence to say that the account simply depicts the poor nameless child/woman as being toast.
the idea of her going into "tabernacle service" is completely fabricated and has no basis in scripture.
There was an interesting post on another site regarding WT's silence about Josephus' commentary on Jephthah's daughter.
This book has a thorough synopsis:
i do not know how amc does it, but i find their shows so addictive.. first, breaking bad, and then better call saul.. walking dead, and fear the walking dead.. now, preacher seems very intriguing..
I do not know how AMC does it, but I find their shows so addictive.
First, Breaking Bad, and then Better Call Saul.
Walking Dead, and Fear the Walking Dead.
Now, Preacher seems very intriguing.
i don't really engage in doctrinal discussions about jw's anymore.
they seem to say some pretty crazy stuff.
but i have read some threads discussing doctrinal changes and how watchtower is really out of ideas and money at the same time.

Thanks Berrygerry
One elder made a comment some time back "Why do JW's receive so much attention when we're only 1% of the earth's population?"
Wanted to jump in, it's 1/10 of 1 %.
But, the first part of his comment was actually more interestingly stupid.

Today's study - April 2016 WT - Extra-simple edition
Thousands of young Christian men and women are willing to sacrifice getting married or are choosing not to have children, at least for now. Why? Because they want to concentrate on serving Jehovah more. Also, many of our older ones sacrifice spending time with their children or grandchildren. Instead, they give their time and energy to Jehovah. Some of them work on construction projects or attend the School for Kingdom Evangelizers and move to a congregation that has a greater need for publishers.
What's old is new again.

The JWs make up for .8 % of the world's population of 7 billion, they have still lots to pick out from
My math is 0.117 %

Thought that this deserved its own thread.

international version 1 cor 5:11. but now i am writing to you that you must not associate with anyone who claims to be a brother or sister but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or slanderer, a drunkard or swindler.
do not even eat with such people.. if shunning is wrong.
.how does one explain this scripture?.
WT shunning is the exact opposite of Corinthians.
Dude was sleeping with his step-mom, so was banned from meetings.
When he ceased boinking his step-mom, he was to be IMMEDIATELY welcomed back.
WT REQUIRES meeting attendance.
WT acts like the Prodigal's resentful brother, bullying those who return, even though no longer "sinning."
