Deuteronomy 21:15-17If a man has two wives, and he loves one but not the other, and both bear him sons but the firstborn is the son of the wife he does not love, when he wills his property to his sons, he must not give the rights of the firstborn to the son of the wife he loves in preference to his actual firstborn, the son of the wife he does not love. He must acknowledge the son of his unloved wife as the firstborn by giving him a double share of all he has. That son is the first sign of his father’s strength. The right of the firstborn belongs to him.

>>18736547The firstborn son better not sell his firstborn right for a bowl of soup.

>>18736535Why is the first born son no longer important in this luciferian society?
>>18736622Because they can't trace their genealogies paternally
>>18736622Same reason people don't care as much about marrying a virgin anymore. In antiquity, the only way you could be 100% certain that a child was your true biological heir was if that child was the firstborn child of a virgin bride. Now, you can just use a paternity test.Also, primogeniture had an important practical purpose in a society that had hereditary noble/royal titles. A man's title couldn't be divided up into shares among his heirs, so there had to be a system that specified which heir would get the title. And it made sense for that to be the eldest son, since he'd be the most experienced when his father died. Societies that instead use some form of elective succession to titles inevitably descend into blood feuds and succession crises.
>>18736535its the only way to teach retarded men that wanting something but willing to become a complete piece of shit for it, is not what the lord is asking. And he paid his entire life for it, probably the most accomplished case of poetic justice from a secular pov
>>18737918Men are allowed to keep having children in their old age but their old wives are no longer fertile. It is perfectly normal for him to get a second young fertile wife to continue having kids in his old age. God simply demands that he does not abandon his old wife and continue taking care of her and the children he had with her.
