I decided to look more into the theme of love in the bible. One example is the first story, which is Adam and Eve. Adam needs a woman and so Eve is created for him. Everyone knows that story. Another example is Sarah and Abram. Sarah was unable to have a child on her own, but loved Abram so much that she offered a surrogate to get him an heir to the throne; she then was rewarded by God with her own child she was able to conceive. In the story of David and Bathsheba, David sees Bathsheba and thinks she&#8217;s beautiful and wants her to be his wife. She&#8217;s married and they commit adultery and she gets pregnant with David&#8217;s child, and David has her husband killed in battle. These are a few examples of romance in the bible, further proving that love is a common theme across all media.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.biblesociety.org.uk\/latest\/news\/8-love-stories-of-biblical-proportions\/<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today in class (11\/02), we started by talking about a common theme in music genres. &#8220;Love&#8221; is used in so many types of music from R&amp;B to country. &#8220;Love&#8221; is also used in practically all types of media like tv shows, movies, books, etc. The Bible is not what I first think of when I&hellip; <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/pca263fall2021\/2021\/11\/03\/love-in-the-bible\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Love in the Bible<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9197381,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-800","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/pca263fall2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/800","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/pca263fall2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/pca263fall2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/pca263fall2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9197381"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/pca263fall2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=800"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/pca263fall2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/800\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":818,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/pca263fall2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/800\/revisions\/818"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/pca263fall2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=800"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/pca263fall2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=800"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/pca263fall2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=800"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
