Living Together Common-law Unmarried Living Together Common-law Unmarried Nowhere are the permissive morals of our day more evident than in the new practice of men and women living together without the benefit of marriage. I say "new", although the practice has been common for centuries as evidenced by the five-times-married woman Jesus met at Jacob's well who was then living with a man who was not her husband. (John 4:16-18) Nor is it new to our day as instances of common-law marriage are not hard to find. It is new only in the sense that it has become a common practice to which society no longer attaches disapproval. The Bible does not teach that a civil or, religious ceremony must be performed for a marriage to be valid in God's eyes. This is a civil requirement and as law abiding citizens, Christians are obligated to observe it. The idea that marriage is a "sacrament" is not found in the scriptures.

Coins of the Bible: Shekel of Tyre. official temple sanctuary ... ... The Roman mint in Antioch started to strike inferior coinage as from the mid-fifties of the first century C.E. These were tetradrachms that are termed "Neronian selaim" in the Jewish sources. A well-known law of economics (Gresham' s Law) determines that inferior coinage infused into a market drives out the good coinage. It is not reasonable for someone to use a coin consisting of 100% silver, when he is able to acquire the same product with a coin consisting of 90% silver.' According to this law, the good Tyrian shekels should have disappeared from the market when the inferior coinage was introduced, but in this case the law was not operative. The reason for this is the special situation that was created in Jerusalem when two monetary systems became established.
