The Rape of Bilhah | Claude Mariottini - Professor of Old Testament

Dr Claude Mariottini has posted a great post today about the story of Reuben raping his step mother in Genesis and people tend to skip this part. Dr Mariottini however takes it on head on. I was aware of the account in Genesis and agreed that Ruben lost his rights as first-born son among Jacob's sons but I had never looked at it the way Dr Mariottini presents it. This is definitely worth reading and thinking about how this shapes Biblical history.
