Did Jesus say the women couldn't do those things? Do any christians oppose women who buy property, inherit ancestral possessions? NO! The marriage part doesn't count. That was for both man and women. It was their job to be an icon for the churchvand raise a loving family.
BTW the orthodox church realizes that some marriages are better off ending in divorce and the marriage is dissolved in church itself. Courtroom divorces are looked down upon. Everything should happen in the presence of god and saints.
The concubines part is indirectly addressed when he said you shouldn't have sex apart from marriage. Besides, I doubt having concubines was socially acceptable in jesus' time. I could be wrong though. Haven't done research on it.
and please excuse me, I won't be able to reply for at least 12 hours so don't get impatient.
Fun fact- birth control is allowed in orthodox church. (Only in marriage)
PS- Luckie's a woman? ??
