But ultimately incorrect.
There are plenty of cases where our Heavenly Father deals in absolutes. It is absolutely wrong to commit adultery. It is absolutely wrong to commit first degree murder. It is absolutely wrong to engage in pornography. The list could go on and on.

Based on some Jewish traditions, they were married. However, according to lds.org, she was his adopted daughter. I think I'll go with the lds.org statement. You will presumably stick with the (undoubtedly incorrect) Jewish tradition as this will allow you to maintain your paradigm that there are no absolutes, when clearly there are.
