The marriage bed is undefined but some things are probably left unsaid. Just because it’s permissible doesn’t mean it’s a great topic of conversation.

Let's get back to something more wholesome, like lesbians.
That sounds promising.
I was wondering where lesbians are?
Are you getting bored of the ones you have in your basement?
I don’t see any prohibit on women with women and please don’t say Romans 1 because that is so vague it could mean a million different things. Also, if a husband wants two women in his bed at the same time there is in my understanding nothing wrong with this act per the already above mentioned Hebrews verse that says the marriage bed is undefiled. Also, In ancient Israel, family beds were often shared within the household, and could be simple or more elaborate depending on the social status of the family. If a man had more than one wife they were probably sharing a bed and guess what folks that means wives were their when the other wife was having sexual intimacy with her husband.
I don't think @theleastofthese actually wanted to talk about them, it was a joke...
Correct, it can NOT mean that because Paul knew better than to "add to" His Word. So it's a mis-translation, and cultural mis-step.
I’ve actually taken College level anthropology and cultural studies and it came up in that class that most Jewish homes were two to three rooms and meant that most families shared beds even with their children.Interesting.
Where did you get such info?
