I understand there's no biblical basis but it makes this site no nevermind anyhow. But to us that read , understand biblical context know the truth.

@fauxlaw

thank you for voting.

There's no explicit biblical basis. There is arguably an implicit one. For example, the Tower of Babel story the people were one people, but then god deliberately scatters humanity across the planet. The end result was people were largely grouped together geographically with similar racial characteristics. Presumably god had his reasons for doing this. If we associate with the other peoples, form multiracial and multicultural societies, then we may be going against god's plan. The ultimate association available would be marriage and breeding.

There is either scripture against it or not. The rest comes down to explaining your understanding of what you read.

A better resolution would be that such passages are mistranslated or otherwise taken out of context. As is, you lose once someone brings up such a scripture.

Also if you're going to post nothing in R1, you should indicate that in the description.

It would be defined by it's scriptural context. Now we can say the connection between all the contexts is a distinct group. That doesn't give us a complete definition. We have to go by how the word is used in a passage.

What is the scriptural definition of race?
