Does Deuteronomy 22:28-29 command a rape victim to marry her rapist?
Deuteronomy 22:28 - 29
ESV - 28 If a man meets a virgin who is not betrothed, and seizes her and lies with her, and they are found. 29 Then the man who lay with her shall give to the father of the young woman fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife, because he has violated her. He may not divorce her all his days.

Yes. It does. But we are no longer under bond age of the law. Jesus fulfilled the law and has set us free.
