Verses in the Bible are like words in the dictionary... just pluck them out to say anything you want.

The same way words in the dictionary contradict. The Bible is a group books... unlike one book, it's not a continuous story that has to be consistent.
They are separate stories taking place over thousands of years and reflect the customs and mores of the period.
