No, rather a dissertation on how old they would be considering the times and all. You will be shocked. It’s actually an easy read. For being as long as it is.

Also, when you consider the Disciples, then you must reconsider the ages of the women, who were themselves probably teenage girls. Young enough not to be married yet, when you consider 16 was a prime age to get married, and by 18 you may have been wondered of as to what is wrong with her thatnoo man wants to Mary her.

Considering the fact that in accordance with Hebrew law and culture the Disciples would have been married by the time they were at least 23 years old and if they had not found a wife one would certainly have been chosen for them.
