Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Joseph's decision to marry Martha was probably affected by the willingness of his parents to provide land or an income, as this was a common practice at that time. Marrying Martha would have been a way to secure his future and ensure that he could continue to work and provide for his family. Factors such as Martha's willingness to go on dates with him or her ability to have children would have been of less importance in this decision.
