Are we forgetting that Gen Petraeus is a mighty man? Listen up! All he has done is take a concubine!
Ge:22:23: And Bethuel begat Rebekah: these eight Milcah did bear to Nahor, Abraham's brother.
Ge:22:24: And his concubine, whose name was Reumah, she bare also Tebah, and Gaham, and Thahash, and Maachah.
Ge:36:11: And the sons of Eliphaz were Teman, Omar, Zepho, and Gatam, and Kenaz.
Ge:36:12: And Timna was concubine to Eliphaz Esau's son; and she bare to Eliphaz Amalek: these were the sons of Adah Esau's wife.
J'g:8:30: And Gideon had threescore and ten sons of his body begotten: for he had many wives.
J'g:8:31: And his concubine that was in Shechem, she also bare him a son, whose name he called Abimelech.
J'g:19:1: And it came to pass in those days, when there was no king in Israel, that there was a certain Levite sojourning on the side of mount Ephraim, who took to him a concubine out of Bethlehemjudah.
J'g:19:24: Behold, here is my daughter a maiden, and his concubine; them I will bring out now, and humble ye them, and do with them what seemeth good unto you: but unto this man do not so vile a thing.
J'g:19:25: But the men would not hearken to him: so the man took his concubine, and brought her forth unto them; and they knew her, and abused her all the night until the morning: and when the day began to spring, they let her go.
2Sa:21:11: And it was told David what Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, the concubine of Saul, had done.
I could go on... and on.
Dear Lord! Give this man a chance! He has not sinned!
