you cannot reasonably transport modern ethics to a world of 4 or 5 millenia ago.

We're not talking about modern ethics. We're discussing God's moral standards. If God is the same yesterday, today and forever, could you please show me how this doesn't apply??

OP - Great question! I am anxious to find out if there will be a logical response.

(The only thing I can think of personally, is where in the NT Christ states that God "allowed" divorce because of the "hardness of man's heart" even though it wasn't his origional plan. I have no idea if this is a similar issue or not.)
