Um... Many Old Testament rules were dropped for the New Testament.

Or did she also sacrifice animals?

You have to grant that nobody is ever particularly clear what parts of the Old Testament can be safely ignored and what parts result in you going straight to Hell if you ignore them.

Might have been nice if a "list of changes and revisions" like in a military doctrine manual, was issued along with the New Testament.

I’m not here to argue over shell fish.

However, I always saw the rule of removing the woman while having her period as having interesting side effects.

Of course there is the peace it brings to a married couple when the woman’s hormones can create turmoil. Then there is the time the woman has to herself away from daily responsibilities. I imagine that every modern woman would be grateful if they had a mandatory time out once every 4 weeks.

Finally,there is the natural consequence of the man and the woman’s children of having to take over the woman’s tasks. This would make for a well rounded family.

Old Testament - The Law
New Testament - Grace
