Question:
Does the Bible talk about marriage between races?

Answer:
We are all of one race in the sense that we all came from Noah, but it was wrong for the Israelites to marry one not an Israelite. A number of men gave up their “strange wives” to please the Lord in Ezra 10. However, in Numbers 12 the Lord defended Moses who was an Israelite, and punished Miriam for speaking against Moses’ marriage to an Ethiopian woman, which was an inter-racial marriage. We find three possible marriages with Canaanites in the genealogy of the Lord in Matthew 1:3, 5, 6, which would be inter-racial, if we consider descendants of the three sons of Noah to be different races.

It is true that with Christians, “There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus” (Galatians 3:28). However, we should consider that there are plenty of differences that must be overcome for a couple to work together in a marriage even if both have the same background and are raised the same, without cultural walls to overcome. An inter-racial marriage will be a problem all through their marriage, not only for themselves and their families, but possibly mostly for the children they may have.
