There's an OT law commanding women to get stoned if she's not a virgin when she's married. So no sex before marriage existed before Christianity.
The verses I think you are referring to recommend stoning the woman
for deception ie pretending she is a virgin on the wedding night.
This? (Deut. 22:13-21).

Originally posted by wolfgang59a woman that proved to not be a virgin on wedding night was to be stoned. what do you think that says about this matter?
I had a Jewish friend who was shagging a Rabbi at every opportunity. She
told me that the nowhere in the OT does it say sex before marriage is wrong.
So my question is; why was it wrong after Jesus?

really? why do you think that if two people are not 'well connected', that healthy sexual relations might constitute a problem?

A women is not a car, but a human being and potential marriage partner with feelings and emotions. A husband should not treat a potential bride like a whore.

Originally posted by Of Ants and ImpsBut if one does not mean for this to be a marriage, he should go ahead and pay his money up front, so it is all clear and fair to the woman.
Their having sex would consummate their marriage. Once you get to that point you are intimately connected as a couple. The ceremony is superficial to the union before Yahweh. Though the exchange of vows and conferral of grace is very important to a lasting marriage.
