Hi Al,

You are welcome. Just in case I was not clear: I, too, find Wenham's view wanting. I only gave the article so that you could hear his view in totality in his own words. Even within the same Journal issue, that view is,IMHO, sufficiently refuted by William Heth, who previously co-authored with Wenham and held the same views.

See here: http://www.sbts.edu/resources/category/journal-of-theology/sbjt-61-spring-2002/

As Pilgrim noted above, I would also be interested in the explanation of the first sentence of #3(i.e. "adultery" vs "fornication"). I recall in one of my readings while back, that there were some who distinguished them on the basis that one of the words included the "betrothal stage" and the other did not. Not sure if this is you're intention.

btw Thanks for sharing.

Carlos
