Cohabitinâ without sayinâ yer vows before a properly ordained minister?Do ya know what they called that back in Bible times, son?Dâya know what they CAAALLED that back in BIBLE times? (thump, thump, thump)Um⊠Well, actually they called it marriage. The policy in Mosaic law (Ex 22:16) was essentially: âYou sleep with her; youâre stuck with her.â The notion that you werenât husband and wife unless you went through some official ceremony didnât really begin until the Middle Ages. Heck, the words translated âhusbandâ and âwifeâ in the Bible are literally just âmanâ and âwomanâ. Sorry for all the confusion over the last few centuries.
