Drink water out of your own cistern, and tricklings out of the midst of your own well. 16 Should your springs be scattered out of doors, [your] streams of water in the public squares themselves? 17 Let them prove to be for you alone, and not for strangers with you. 18 Let your water source prove to be blessed, and rejoice with the wife of your youth, 19 a lovable hind and a charming mountain goat. Let her own breasts intoxicate you at all times. With her love may you be in an ecstasy constantly.
Staying clean before the Eyes of GOD is a matter for christians to obide by. Let your conscious be your guide based upon what you read in the bible. We live in a world where sexual desire diminishes because of the body dying. The fact of the matter is old age is death, and humans were not intended to die but to live forever. So we have to deal with circumstances that take a Supreme Judge (Almighty GOD) to judge us upon and determine what is right. Marriage is the joining of man and women, but once you become married, you are only allowed to divorce based upon fornication or adultery. God does not require a marriage certificate. Did this couple sleep with anyone else after they were together? If not they were still married at least until one or the other slept with someone else. If you wrote a book based upon an account of two worldy people would it condemn you for writing about it? hmmmm
