I find it interesting that the Pearls have any credibility. I have CTBHHM and I decided to look up the verses that they are twisting in support of their heresies. For example, there is a story about a woman who thought that she was more spiritual than her dh, she told him what to do and wasn't submitting to him. The Pearls said that her odd behaviors (She was ranting and raving, accusing her dh of being unfaithful with all the young women in the church) were the result of the Lord striking her with madness, per Deuteronomy 28:28. I read a couple of chapters prior to that verse. There is NOTHING in there about being struck w/ madness for not submitting to dh. It talks about the curses upon the children of Israel if they do not follow the law that God gave to Moses.

There is a part where they talk about Bathsheeba, how it was her lack of modesty and discretion which caused David to succumb to lust and commit adultery w/ her and cause the fall of all of David's household. Except that there was no such thing as indoor plumbing for Bathsheeba to bathe herself. And, being up on one's roof was not an anomality. Even now at least in Syria people go to the top of their roofs where it is cooler.
