Did Christ Marry?
A. Yes. Jesus Christ had to be married to be accepted as a teacher or leader in Israel. It was required under the Law of Moses, that "the leader of my people must marry a virgin." This meant that the leader would have understanding of family problems, and would have demonstrated an ability to hold a marriage together (as this obviously implies that he is still married to her).
It was also required that they be 30 years old. Which Christ also complied with.
Had he failed to marry he also wouldn't be fulfilling the commandment given to be fruitful and multiply. It should be understood that righteous sex doesn't include lust. I mention this just in case this is an issue which may confuse you or others reading.
