Even that interpretation still leaves the whole "his daughters are just tools he can use to meet his obligations" thing. It's values like this that the old testament was based on.

    You got to remember that the old testament was written over a very long time. The books of moses were likely written over the time from 1200-400 BC, with different souces mentioning different time frames.

    So it's hard to point to these as being one consistent thing with consistent values, same as it would be hard to claim that there were consistent values between now and 800 years ago.
