Pedophilia in the Bible: this is a porn book

[Angrboda]

It told them to keep the children for themselves. Explicitly.

Yes, it explicitly says keep. The problem is that your mind reads "keep" as enslave and immediately fuck .

I don't need to go that far to draw the same conclusion. It's clear that they differentiated between women who had lain with a man and those who hadn't because the former were not considered suitable for marriage (if I'm not mistaken, taking them as wives would be adultery). So the distinction clearly indicates that they were taking them to be wives. Whether it's enslave and immediately fuck, or enslave and later fuck is irrelevant; they were being taken for the purpose of being fucked, plain and simple.
